Watching with interest. I've done the same, starting with a 3D scan, but of a 1/48 plastic model - would love to start with a full-scale scan though.

Very interested in your approach to mold making. I've always found it easier to sand on a convex surface (such as a wing/ fuselage plug) rather than the concave surface of the mold.

I watched a YouTube video of someone 3D printing these types of molds with no plugs to make a large A350 airliner.

Also, are you planning on adding surface detail (rivets/ panel lines)? I'd be really interested in how you approach that compared to the scribing method as you have to add raised detail to the plug to get recessed detail on the final part.


Keep posting.
