Screen Accurate Millennium Falcon Cockpit (CG Model)

[SteveStarkiller]

thanks guys!

so, I decided that I was not at all happy with the accuracy of the corridors, and, over the past two weekends, started again from scratch. getting much happier with the results, as well as getting to all the panels on the main hold couch, and the nav-computer. I set up some renders of the new work, in stereo, and I'll post those soon.

It's amazing and worth the wait for whatever changes you have made and will make. Great attention to detail.

Annnnd, that's exactly how I'd put it.

Thanks guys! I'm really flattered. I have to say I'm getting pretty happy with the way it's coming along.

@rundown,
ideally I will uv map it someday, because it does look way too clean. As a few folks have said before, it looks like it must have looked on the dealership lot, before Solo and Chewie moved in.

Unfortunately, Sketchup's texture tools are pretty much a joke, so I will probably have to wait until it's complete enough to export to another program. When that will happen, since I seem to rebuild it every six months or so, is anyone's guess...

Found this thread to see if it might be able to help you out with anything that you might have missed

Other than that I say this build is looking quite delicious.

thanks Mauiman,

that thread was a great boon when I first started this project especially with that amazing photo of the cockpit interior set, which I'll repost here just for fun:

needless to say, I've pretty well scoured the RPF for other falcon interior threads and references. But I'm sure I haven't seen it all, so I appreciate your taking a look!

recently I've been working on a more accurate model of the Martin Baker Mk IV Variant headrest.

free bump

I give another free bump.

So what is going on with this project? Was booming and now dead like if there was a nuclear holocaust or something.
