JABBA'S SAIL BARGE 1/6 SCALE

[GEEK1138]

Ok so I've finished 'painting' the hull...feels much more like a bronze sculpture than a paint job...I'm super happy with it. And the verdigris can be buffed out so u can leave as much as u want. I want it to look a bit moth balled, hanging in the cave, waiting to be called into service but I will definitely clean it up a bit more

Also got the first sail structure completed. I will attach the sail cloth before fixing them to the mast

Thanks guys...much appreciate the comments

So, it's not far off being done now...got all the deck stuff finished and gave the handrail a waxed wood effect.

Really just the sails to sort out...figuring out how best to tension the canvas and sew the seams

For a moment I thought that closeup of the deck (picture 3 down) was a still from the movie. This is brilliant!!!

 

[NakedMoleRat]

I want to come hang out at your house.

 

[Cameron]

Wow. That’s all I got.

 

[Searun]

You are a machine. There just is no other explanation.

 

[Zannee]

Oh wow! This is amazing! If I had not seen the earlier pics I would have thought this was built out of metal. Fantastic job! Could not have been cheap with the wood prices what they are at now.

 

[JediMichael]

Totally awesome.

Please tell us it also hovers......oh please............

 

[joberg]

Wait! No...I'm not crying; what are you implying?

 

[GEEK1138]

OK all done here...I have to make the sails detachable for installation in her new home in Outpost One, so I can't finishing the rigging until she's there but everything else is done;

 

[joberg]

Impressive indeed!!
