Starting to add panel lines. Instead of scribing I decided to have slightly different level of the panels. Where I made some errors I have puttied. The slight ridge is not easy to see but is obvious in certain lighting conditions

Fixing some chipped areas

Not much bloggin I guess because I don't have anything to say. Well today StarShip Modeller has announced a 1:288 Serenity will be offered soon and they are taking pre-orders. This is the model done by Stargazer. The tentative release date is May 1 2006. This is interesting as the official ornament is supposed to be released in April.

I wonder what the sales of these kits will be like. It may sell like hotcakes or the announcement of the ornaments may severely dampen sales.
