[QUOTE]Originally posted by Malnurtured Snay: [QB] [QUOTE]there isnt any way to accomplish both a "complete" ship and an "accessable" ship...or in all of my doubts have I overlooked something the soon to be christened "Lego Wizard Snay" has overcome?[/QUOTE]You've pegged it. With the execeptions of lower decks with cabins with windows or doors (i.e., shuttlebay, cargo bay, airlocks), there will be NO access to the interior. Yeah, it's a bumber, but I want a complete ship over an accessible ship, so it's a trade off I'm okay with. I do plan on buying a digital camera and taking complete photos, so someone can pick up a binder filled with the shots and say "so THAT'S what Deck Four looks like!" [QUOTE]Modularity in fact *forces* me to build things that can support their own weight, with or without the modules in place. Using old Technics series elements on the interior structural frames (you know, those yellow or red 1x16-stud beams full of holes for connecting bolts) gives great strength and also improves the realism of the model...[/QUOTE]Timo, My experience while building large models suggests that the structure is much stronger when I can "interlink" it as much as possible ... building in a modular format, unfortunately, won't allow that (IMO).
