    Another quick update this week:

    I have completed the 7 non-hero panels, and have started work on the hero panel:





    I'm getting close to the end!

    I'm jealous every time I see a Han that doesn't have visible horizontal seams from being cut for shipping.

    Excellent work, looks perfect!

    The side panels look great, Chris!

    Are those Darthchromer's panels?

    Did you have to give them a good wash before primer and paint?

    What kind of primer/paint did you use...color?

    How did you attach the greeblies to the aluminum sheeting, I'm concerned what kind of glue to use

    thanks

    brad

    Hi Brad,

    Yes - they are Darthchromer's panels - they're very nice too! I gave them a good scrubbing, primed them with Rustomleum 2X black primer, and the final 2 coats were Krylon Stainless steel. I used a medium CA glue for all of the greeblies.

    Thanks for all of the compliments everyone! I really appreciate it
