1/144 Star Wars Millennium Falcon (The Force Awakens) plastic model BANDAI

I'll be honest. This is not the way I would go about things on this model. I'm not really a fan of decals for panels.

But as you've been going, your final product has been shaping up. And now it looks amazing!

This is the Falcon!

It looks to me that this kit uses the old guns, it must have been mentioned. I did a quick plan from the one pic I have for anyone who might like some idea of how they are now, to modify.

I know Stevestarkiller has done some renders with views other than this side-on so this might add to that. I posted this in the Prop-guns thread. http://www.therpf.com/showthread.php?t=236527

I can't believe this hadn't occurred to me until just now, but I have a question. The streaks on the dorsal hull surface appear to be caused by leaks of some kind, and are running toward the outer edge of the hull because of gravity. So would streaks on the ventral hull surface run inward toward the guns? :confused

Absolutely. Look at pics of the underside of the studio models. The streaks go to the centre

It was :wacko

I had screw up in model building but that bad and so close to the end never before :thumbsdown

The glue I used completely destroyed the mounting points on the stand and the Falcon :cry

So I had to figure out if it was possible to save it and well I think I will be able to but this one will be in landing mode or just taking of :thumbsup

The other issue is that I can't put all the landing gear on because my DC com port is on one of the landing gear bay :thumbsdown

Will have to found an explanation to that when it come to build the diorama fot this one because she is now landed or taking of :thumbsup

Right now that's what I have done so far to save her:








 
Hi Guys.

Looking at the Bandai Landing gears, do you think its a bit oversized. The landing plates are bigger than the landing gear boxes....how can that fit?

Is this landing gear the same size with the Fine Mold 1/144 ones
 
It will be a taking of scene so she would be display like that (pic just to give an idea) :thumbsup



The custom stand / base / diorama for the Falcon with the concealed DC plug will connect to the DC port and support the ship :D
