[Challenge & Achievement] Star Workshop Reaches Full Height

Continuing on with Star Workshop (not a Rolife kit) and the progress so far.

Power test number six is in the books and everything is still lighting up the way it should, which always feels like a win at this stage. I like doing these checkpoints as I go because it’s so much easier to fix something now than later when everything is sealed up.

This section is where the build really starts to grow vertically, and it’s fun seeing it reach its full height. This is as tall as it gets, so from here it’s more about filling everything in.

There are so many tiny stars in this part of the build. It definitely takes some patience, but they really add to the overall look and give it that full starry workshop feel.

If you missed the earlier part of this build, you can catch it here:

And here’s the latest power test video: Video

Do you enjoy placing lots of small details like this, or do you prefer the bigger structural pieces?

Addendum. Oops, I left off the frosted sheet for the moon earlier. It looks so much better now, so here’s an updated video.

Kim_Kieffer, this is such a satisfying milestone, that moment when the build reaches its full height always feels a little magical! Six power tests and still lighting up beautifully is exactly the kind of progress that builds confidence, and those tiny stars sound wonderfully fiddly in the best way. You are really giving this workshop its full starry personality, and I am loving the journey with you!

Thank for share. I look forward to seeing your work when it’s finished.
