1:12 scale Millennium Falcon cockpit build

[Lord Blackthorn]

So after seeing Dazza007's amazing files for the studio scale build hes doing, I couldnt resist on taking these and trying to rescale for the 1:12 scale black series. Ive been wanting to do this build for some time but just couldnt find files good enough to try and start this project. Either people dont want to share or charge an arm and a leg for mediocer files that just dont look halfway descent. So thanks again Dazza007 for all the work youve put into these, by far the best ive seen.

So on to the build, with the files and rescaling them I did have to make some minor adjustments to make them a little more printer friendly. But overall most the files are ready to print. Im sure with a few more mods you could definatly scale this to 1:6 scale as well.

So here is a pic of the cockpit and what were going for

Eager to see your next update. Btw, what brand of printer are you using?

I use mutiple, for the main prints I have a Raise 3d pro2 and a kobra max 2 and a little generic one for the small prints. For the resin prints I have 2 anycubic Photon resin printers that I use

Got the main hull printed, and top greebles I did in resin. I am printing everything in PETG, I do most my prints out of that. I feel like the prints hold up better and more durabilitty and not as fragile if they get mishandled or bumped by kids. I messed up on one spot when putting the greebles on, ill have to reprint it. It broke when trying to take it off to reposition it. The coolshade ring I also printed sepretly so it would print out better, I was a little worried on the outcome on this piece, but it turned out pretty goood. If one wanted to like in ESB, you could add the red lights that shine through the coolshade and it would definatly allow it.

Great update...keep up the good work

I wonder where you got the single greeblies from? Is there a version of the main tube without them?

So in the main tube file they greebles arn't meshed to to the main hull, so if youre program lets you ungroup everything it seperates the greebles so you can save them individually for printing

Brilliant. I get it. And BambuLab lets me ungroup them. Thanks!
