Well I've finally reached a final stage for one leg of this journey:- I didn't spend TOOOOO Long on the paintjob - this is really more of an exploration of paint apps for the improved, revised V2 design of Magnam that I'll be printing soon but this didn't turn out too bad for a one day build...

Pretty pleased with the fake scope solution :D

Awesome video! such a satisfying thing to see it all slot together so smoothly, you must be so proud of your engineering skills :D
One question - do the grips also come off the main frame?
Seen it 4 times now, watched the making of, bought the Art Of..book. I'm totally in love with this movie! Gonna have to make me some props from it to further my obsession.
Bravo Gareth Edwards and all involved.
Recently finished a Hoth/Bespinesque DL for a good friend's 50th birthday with the little added detail of a personalised serial on the rear G8R3TT50 (His name is G.Brett)

Not to hijack your thread (as if that's possible) - Massively inspired by your builds I recently built a Hoth/Bespinesque DL for a good friend's 50th birthday with the little added detail of a personalised serial on the rear G8R3TT50 (His name is G.Brett)
Thanks for sharing your awesome...
