Ok so not to worry people but there's only a MONTH! left lol :p So got back to work on my 1/144 falcon. First off I really dont like the turret/gunner canopy frames. So I tried to thin them down and remove the 'glass' (its not quite up to Sctratchy's standards but I think it works lol).

Here it is primed and in place (also just primed are the guns/cannons):

Almost done weathering the front (havnt started on the cockpit walkway) Also the main canopy (Awesomely scratchbuilt by someone that we all know ;) Thanks mate) can be seen at the bottom with just primer on:

And overal shot:

Hopefully this will be done by the time we finish! Still got the bottom to do and finish my motorbike over at 'war wheels'
Enjoy and as always comments welcome! ;D
 
Re: Merseajohn's 1/144 FM MF

That's looking really good.
Opening those gunwell canopies were a good idea

Thanks guys! ;D I've still got the bottom to do so not quite there yet but fingers crossed this will be done by the deadline.
 
Re: Merseajohn's 1/144 FM MF

Mate the paint job on that is spectacular. As has been said before, it looks like a 32inch falcon. size wize and detailed.
