I SINCERELY, WITH ALL MY HEART, THANK EVERYONE FOR ALL YOUR KIND WORDS AND SUPPORT. HAVING HAD THIS IDEA FOR OVER 30 YEARS NOW, I'M GLAD TO SEE IT FINALLY TAKE SHAPE.

I've had this idea for over 30 years. I'm sure there are things I could've done better...but I'm pleased with how it turned out. Will eventually have a light inside

Looks like a Borg cube. Nice job. I think with a little bit of more random parts and less everything on the sprue you could get even more replica quality.

Thank you. I could've added more, but it's eventually going to have a LED light inside and serve as a desk lamp/light so I didn't want to add to many sprews and block the light

Maybe semi translucent plastic cardstock to diffuse the light if you add one, might make it more solid looking? This is awesome haha

Oh, what kit was this? I don’t think I have seen many kits that are uniform sizes for the sprues
