Mini millenium falcon.

[BenHobbie]

Beside the others project I am in the process to do a mini falcon for my son

That was before a saw revell re edit all the finemolds star wars kit in an second line call master series

So now we have the regular revell kit and the re edites finemolds kit :

I will begin with the mini and then when picked up the larger one. We think the re edited finemolds is the 1/144.

So priming time! More soon

These little Revell pocket Falcons are great! The sidewalls are tall but the detail is super fly. Great for YT mods.

The new re edition

So when I will building my Bandai 1/144 one in the same time or may be before I will do the little revell for my son^^

Mainly because he loved being with me when I work on models so doing something with him FOR him will be cool

Even if my son don't care about so much I will do some modifications and maybe some 3d parts to be a little more accurate and a full paint job :

And due to the size of the ship here that's realy possible to do the docking bay 94 as a diorama even if my display area is limited

So I will do it ;D

 

[BenHobbie]

And since she will be in landing mode I have to scratchbuild landing gear, landing bay doors and the acces ramp I may use some cutout materiel in the process to do it :

For the engine grill since it will never be seen because the two view points will be like:



And:



I will paint the clear plastic grey and then weathered it to mimic and off engine, but one again no one will see it :

 

[BenHobbie]

Not to mention this one is my LAST revell kit as a personnal build and I bought it ONLY because I had no alternative at this scale :

After modifications it will be far better than out of the box

Decided to not go with revell finely this project is abandonned with the revell kit and will be done with another one.
