noelbarnes Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Here is my Moebius Space Clipper finished. Unfortunately something went astray with my LED strip wiring inside the fuselage and only half of them are lit. You cannot tell that the interior is lit unless it is in complete darkness. Oh well, not much I can do now. I decided to finish her like a modern airliner all clean ans sparkly in pristine condition. 39 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bentwaters81tfw Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Fantastic. Mine is built and decalled, but just plain white primer. I think I might add some enhancements to the finish after seeing this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bentwaters81tfw Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 I have spare sets of the PanAm decals if you get the later boxing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gimme Shelter Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 looks brilliant - any chance you can include a photo showing the interior fuselage lit up as I seem to remember it has a card insert 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 I wouldn't worry about the cabin lights - they're all asleep or have the blinds down. Looks great anyway - nice & crispy, just like Kubrick's vision of the future 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed it looks geat - the much maligned kit decals really work well. Thomo. Edited January 10, 2018 by The Tomohawk Kid 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iSteve Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Beautiful finish Noel! Well done! Exactly how I would like to do mine. Is this the latest release from Moebius, or the earlier one? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael louey Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Hi Noel, Great model, especially with the lighting. I'm about to start mine (without the lighting) after seeing a great build of one by one of our club members a few months back. Cheers Michael 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make sure you get the latest iteration of the kit as it has some minor improvements, such as thinner wings. Thomo. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
general melchett Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Thanks Thomo, yes, as well as the thinner wings the updated version seems to have crisper details, panel lines, exhaust turbines, etc which all look to be an improvement over the original issue. I believe the decal quality and definition have been upgraded too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wing would definately look better, but other stuff wasn't a concern for me. I think a either will produce a great build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the decal quality and definition have been upgraded too. I have both editions as far as I can make out there is no dicernable difference between the decals. They are far better than some may have you think on certain other fora Thomo. Edited January 19, 2018 by The Tomohawk Kid 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
