My Bandai 1/144 Falcon build

[Captain Han Solo]

Howdy!

I replaced the bow tie dish with the classic round one,Used phot etch on the rear engine exhausts, Lit and weathered the model to scale, And had a little fun...

Boring bench shots...





Some beauty shots of my 1/144 Bandai Falcon build...

Looks freaking awesome!

 

[Grendels]

Well done!

 

[Quaralane]

Very nicely done.
Almost makes me think about stealing the old style dish from the FM version for mine

 

[Captain Han Solo]

Many thanks guys!
I don't care for the new "Pasta Bow Tie" Dish the Falcon currently wears. It throws off the look(to me anyway). I have retained it for easy replacement if needed.

Having built ...more than I can remember, 1/72 Fine molds kits I can honestly say, this is my Favorite kit of the ship. I don't care for the 32" which the Fine Molds kits(and pretty much everything else, except the old MPC kit), was based on.

Great job! I'm not big on the bow tie dish either.

 

[Captain Han Solo]

Again, Many Thanks indeed!

Really nice job on this. I especially like your not so boring composite beauty shots. Fun!

Those photo etch parts add a lot. It looks like you have them on the radar dish as well.

Again, many thanks indeed!!!!
