From Randy:

[People who have the kit] ...can you ask them if they have had any problems e-mailing me?

I'm getting reports of people who are getting "mail returned"

Err, I guess - keep trying! :cool

Hello Eagle,

Great progress! this will help build mine alot, yes I noticed the plates which needs to be sanded down quite a bit, actually one was way too thick. Will start on mine soon.

Thanks, Dave.

White's a given but what about shading/panelling? What have people done before?

Re: 38" Star Destroyer - Eagle's Build

Personally, I'd do a completely unmasked flat white basecoat with the airbrush. Let dry, then selectively mask certain panels, and airbrush some gray such that you get a very subtle color difference. By airbrushing, you can alter how much you add or not..........to increase the variance in colors. The closer you stay to your base white, the more believeable it will be.

Just started mine, will post progress photos, alot of cleaning in the rear fins area and alot of rescribing so the fins appear also in the engine area, they lack in the kit and makes a huge difference when added, had to belt sand most of the hull panels which were too thick in some area so the side trench panels can fit properly.
