AMT Slave One WIP

And finally, the cargo area.

My first idea for the ceiling didn't light up the cargo area enough so I had to do some redesigning. I came up with this.

I made a light box for the LED with the ceiling attached to one side and the rest is covered in foil tape to prevent light bleed.

Thanks for looking and sorry for the lack of updates in a while.

Looking great! The colours and lightning looks nice, and in style of the ship and film. Very nice indeed!

I had to show this thread to my wife. This is some terrific and very fun detail. I'm loving this build

 

[Blade90]

Very Cool, indeed!

 

[Randy13]

Thank you so much for the kind words guys. Next I’ll be adding a few fiber optic strands to the cargo area then I’ll have to start painting body which I’m still intimidated with. It wasn’t easy to adjust my camera to take these pictures in the dark. These pictures just don’t look as good as it does in person.

Small update here. Did a paint test on an area that isn't seen much. I can't find any pictures of this part of the ship so I just had a little fun with it.

Really like the cargo bay! You are doing an awsome job

 

[Randy13]

Thank you Propcollector.

Since the weather had cooled down over the weekend, I did some airbrushing. I still have to add some paint details and weathering. These are taken outdoors.

These are taken indoors. My wife has started Halloween shopping already.

Thanks for looking.

 

[NAZGÛL]

Ah, thats such a great paint scheme and yours is looking really nice!

 

[Randy13]

Thanks Nazgul. I'm in the middle of weathering this part of the hull right now which should make it look a lot better.

 

[Jaitea]

She looks mean, looking forward to seeing the weathering

Thank you Jaitea,

Here are some pictures of the hull with weathering. The first two are taken indoor and the rest are outdoor.

Whoooaa! have not seen this thread in a while? Randy!! ...I love it!.... the cargo hold and cockpit are amazing ! this project is definitely coming together. Now lets see this masterpiece finish. Love the work you've done great paint job details.

 

[blipper]

This is looking really good Randy - those outdoor shots particularly.

 

[Randy13]

Thank you Metallboy and Blipper. Not much of an update here, or at least no pictures to show. I’m in the middle of remaking the overhead lighting for the cargo area. The light box I made for that test fitted ok but when I started to put it all together, it turned out to be too big. I’m just going to do a simple re-design that should fit and not change the lighting effect.
