Hi Everyone

Would be very interested on how to light block the shuttlebay. When you look at the Shuttle BAy from behind I have a lot of light seeping through in the space between the secondary hull and the shuttle bay itself. Any tips would be appreciated!!! Alan

Hey Alan, I think you are talking about this area here, if so what we did
was to first make sure everything fits and the top seam closes. Everyone is
having trouble with closing the hull around the shuttle bay, and having a gap on top, we cut some
of the inside of the model out to make it fit correctly, it is in one of the videos. To get that
area light was blocked was to get the secondary hull and the bay glued together then I shot the canopy
glue in the seam then Tom went back and hit it with a skim coat of putty, got it as smooth as we could
and painted it black a few times.
