Re: [Papermodels II 41386] Chaffee Shuttlecraft ready for downloadI can tell you what changes I've made, but I let the people that build it decide if it is improved. These include:
Complete repaint of the original, to eliminate the hand drawn appearance Adaptation of elements from Paragon's redraw of the same model to correct the shape of the hull and include missing components Redesign of the hull bottom, impulse engine, deflector insert, warp nacelles, to more prototypical shape/appearance. Note: The bottom of the hull is still not correct, as I left it flat, rather than including the recessed center of the CGI model. Complete redesign of the aft end to provide a more prototypical appearance for the hatch in the end, and to the area below the warp nacelles. I also included the landing struts that are visible in side views of the shuttle that were missing from the original model. Addition of a center "belt" between the upper and lower halves of the hull for a more prototypical appearance. All of my modifications are based on the best prototypical source material I could find. That said, I wouldn't have known where to begin if Ninjatoes and Paragon hadn't gone ahead of me and done most of the engineering. Hope you like it.
