Hello guys,
Do you know something about this one ?
It's clearly not a preprod or a study model since it already has the final shape (hammer head).
Thanks for your help !

According to a 1978 article in Cinefantastic, this was used for the
opening fly over shot. It was machined from solid aluminum.

That model still exists. I saw it in Los Angeles in 1997.

Is it a maquette/study model for making the large studio scale miniature?
That is reknowned zen miniature maker Dave Beasley in the picture! I worked with him at Brick Price Movie Miniatures wayyy back in 1987. Great vintage picture.
Hey Julien,
recently i found this picture from someone who visited the
Lucas-Archives

Thanks guys
Yeah Rob Ive heard the same, unfortunatly I wasnt able to spot it on the screen !
Wow Andre, many thanks, never saw this pic, first time I see it finished and painted !
That's pic is really cool, there were more AMT kits built than I thought ! And that's very sad to see Red 5/4 in this state.
Are some of those x-wings and falcons the old ERTL kits? I know some of the parts were used to detail ESB/ROTJ ships, but I didn't think whole kits were used for anything except maybe far off background ships or pyro.

Six X-wings and two Falcons from the old MPC kits. There's one wing from a smaller X-wing. Maybe the snap-fit? But IIRC that wasn't released before ROTJ. Definitely more X-wings than we realized, eh?James Kenobi 1138 said:

This means that the moderator must move all MPC kit builds of the X Wing and Millennium Falcon over to the Studio Scale thread ... Right?James Kenobi 1138 said:
LOL! Heck, if I ever build an MPC in an authentic Jedi scheme, this is where I'll post it.Flintlock said:

Those would be MPC Falcons, and I guess they would have been built either for 'videomatics' pre-viz, or long shots. Or both.JediG60racer said:

I cant tell you much about the model but thats Dave Beasly who built it. Next time I see him I will ask about it.

I just noticed there's a chicks backside in that photo as well !
Randy Cooper has noted that he took his Blockade Runner dimensions from the smaller model as far as I can recall. It was on his blog at one time I believe.BrundelFly said:
He commented that he took photocopies or scans from it from a model that Grant McCune had in the office.Scott Graham said:
