Thanks Peza, I'll have a look & see if I have any photos of that,...The ARC cannon was a bit of a pain to replicate,.....but I think Ive got it sorted now,.....there will be a flash/seam line that will need getting rid of.....cleaned up

Thanks Gag,.....this one isn't as amazing as your project

Thanks John,.....I'll honestly get some parts sent this week,......I couldn't let them go as they were


OK.....Because the boxes have an open area, you can see under the part,....the mandibles need that area repaired,...so I spent a bit of time filling in holes & gaps

I also removed some of the pipes,....which I'll have to replace:

Yeah brilliant, and that's what I like about that 'model' when I'm finished fiddling I can just slap some paint on and it'll look ok.
 
Thank you very much for the comments guys

OK,.....while I'm waiting for my 1/48 Chewie that is with the Bandai AT-ST,....I picked up a wee resin pilot figure in 1/48 for a fiver (£5)

Still a bit more to carve off,....his goggles carve up to make nice centre parting hairstyle

This paper scan of the DeAgostini cockpit insert (reduced by 10%) as a test

Hopefully the Chewie figure works out proportionally to the pilot

Thanks very much guys

I've tidied the Han pilot a bit.....

The Bandai AT-ST arrived & this is the Chewie figure that came with it,....Im hopefully going to mould it & modify the cast to make him seated

I've been busy reworking the 2 open areas,.....thing is when I started these I was just trying to improve the open areas that were on the Hasbro Falcon,....using parts similar that was on the 32".......now I'm going back and refining the details,......I'm not going 100%,....because I don't have all the original parts,....but I'm trying to make it closer to the 32" using whats in my parts box

Coming along nicely. Han looks ace. I'm sure Chewster can be seated...cast a few.
 
I got new moulds done of 2 inserts & casting has turned out great,....the first ones out had a few bubbles but are fixable

.....& Bandai Chewie:

This is coming along very well. Han looks perfect and I expect Chewie will trim up to match.
 
Thanks Jake

Did a bit of mucking about last night,....I used similar parts that are on the SS 32" Falcon but did it slightly different,....just to add more depth

I really like the extra depth this is adding. The multiple levels of detail look great.
