Re: Interest in Millennium Falcon Group Build

You're doing the MPC kit aren't you Scott?
BUILD LOG PLEASE!!

 

[Junkie]

Re: Interest in Millennium Falcon Group Build

Yup. MPC wth lots of resin and PE. There will be some videos for sure.

Re: Interest in Millennium Falcon Group Build

Oh, that's right. I remember you saying in a video that you've been carrying the kit and aftermarket stuff around for a long time. I've got a small dio/vignette planned for the MPC kit. Something I've never seen done before. Can't wait either!!

Re: Interest in Millennium Falcon Group Build

Scott I seem to remember a little plan you had for the falcon on a video along time ago in a mancave far far away?

Re: Interest in Millennium Falcon Group Build

Who's strated building yet? I got a wild hair (and some time) and have started mine. No pictures yet, I'll start a page over at SSM for mine, when I take a few, but honestly, there's not a whole lot to see yet. I've used the kits original sidewalls, but have cut them down to a more appropriate size, and tonight, I've started my modifications to the 'exhaust' area and replacing the engine deck.

I had toyed with the idea of lighting it, but I just don't hate myself that much! ;D There may be a bit of interior visable, however. Pretty much, I'm just making it up as I go!

Re: Interest in Millennium Falcon Group Build

Just setting here thinking....

If any of you, who are not normally SciFi builders, are going to be using Fine Molds Falcon, are you aware that the forward 'mandibles' are not canted inward as they should be? To be accurate, you'll have to "break the jaws", so to speak ! It can be done, several of the builders over at SSM have done it, but it's a hassle. It's one argument for for using the AMT kit; it's inaccuracies are smaller and more easily dealt with. The Fine Molds one BIG inaccuracy is a real b!tch.

Just thinking.

 

[JohnSimmons]

Re: Interest in Millennium Falcon Group Build

Yeah Iv seen it done, and it's looked good but what a job! I can live with mine the way it is. There's actually quite a few bits & pieces missing and things that are inaccurate with the FM falcon, but its still the best kit money can buy.

 

[fumblethumbs]

Re: Interest in Millennium Falcon Group Build

Sounds like a good plan Butters. Maybe you can post a link here for your thread on SSM?

 

[Junkie]

Re: Interest in Millennium Falcon Group Build

The dreaded mandibles. This debate comes up almost as often as full moons. LOL.

 

[Quaralane]

Re: Interest in Millennium Falcon Group Build

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, do NOT let this degenerate into an argument about those Mandibles.
I almost don't read MF threads at SSM anymore because of those stupid arguments
