Surveyor III - WiP Update


Well I got the landing struts made, been debating how detailed I should make them, will add some bits and pieces, but they wont be exact models of the original probe's struts. As you can see I've finished one leg with suspensions, and size testing the fuel tanks. Still not sure if I'll use those tanks as they are, sand them down a bit in size, or model new ones from putty.

Will you put 1 or 2 astronauts beside it?

And at what compression ratio do you save your Jpg's files for this blog?

I've started working on two astronaut figures.

I usually save cropped images at about 80% quality, after cropping and resizing. I'm planning on having larger pictures of higher quality on my regular homepage later.

Well I'm afraid I've been a bit under the weather for the past 5 weeks or so, I've been dealing with RL stuff and haven't been in shape to model. Will pick up soon I hope, so check back in another week or two. Best estimate I can give you right now.

Is it eye strain from making these tiny models !? :)

Seriously hope you're feeling better soon !! I check in every few days to see what you're upto ! You'll have to make a HMS Camden Lock in time for series 2 of Hyperdrive !
