Notes:

• Updated model has 382 bricks, including pilot
• Preliminary Vanduul figure has been fitted into the cockpit, in case you want to see which parts I am considering for the figure

Just to clarify, as my description may have overlooked this, the set I am proposing includes both the Vanduul Scythe and the Origin 325a. Thanks once again!

Thank you, 1700+ supporters!

This is the updated LDD file: https://www.dropbox.com/s/f56in1slot5rtmo/origin%20325a.lxf?dl=0

Notes:

• Model has been updated to increase structural strength, such that there are now 585 parts (including pilot)
• Constructive criticism, points for improvement and reports of wrongly placed parts/bugs are greatly appreciated

Thank you for all your support, SC fans! This is crazy ;)

Here are 3 pictures of the scythe in various states of completion:

This last photo, in particular, shows the completed left and right wings, with a placeholder cockpit. Later on I moved the right wing further away from the main canon so as not to obstruct the folding mechanism. In addition, I also rebuilt the engines from 2-wide to 3-wide.

Thanks to my origin 300i project, I gained valuable feedback on my first design. I realized that I needed to "buff" up the crew section , which can be seen in this photo (red region is the rebuilt area):

I then started work on the rear section, which was extremely off in terms of proportion. This photo below from the earlier stages of the rebuild shows the use of large triangular wedge bricks to make the wings. However, I found that these were not quite swept enough and were span-wise too long.

This last LDD picture shows the engine section of the new 300i nearing completion and compared with the old model:

The new hexagonal engine section is indeed more accurate than the old one, as can be seen from this reference photo, courtesy of CIG:
