Anyone Making a GHOST from SW:REBELS ?

So, I'm doing the DeAgostini Falcon thing. While I'm getting all my ducks in a row for that project, I've renewed my search fo a model of the Ghost from REBELS.

I know that Google is my friend, but evidently. we're on the outs, because I've tried every variation of Star Wars REBELS Ghost model that I can think of, & only get results for the LEGO ship, which I have. I figured the community here would know if these would even exist at this point, or if anyone was working on it. I've been a bit surprised that there hasn't been much discussion about the ship on here.

I really like the call-backs to the Falcon in this thing, & would love to practice some weathering on it, before jumping feet first into the 32" Falcon.

Thanks to all.

 

I was looking into similar recently when considering scratch build projects to get me up skilling, I did come across this article and links to 3D printed model on ShapeWays

Many thanks.:thumbsup

I'm hoping for something a bit larger, but that looks great.

 

I am planning to build one after I finish my titan, but that is a few months away... but I am planning to build it at 1/72nd scale. That puts the pilot at 9/10th's of an inch tall. I could go a little bigger if you ask nicely, but not by too much. That thing is huge!

 

Well, Ive tried and had some success. Unfortunately, it is as big as the BMF and bulkier.

 

I know it isn't perfect, but its a scratchbuild and I didn't have the small model to go by. The side cannisters open for a hallway on each side. the cockpit will seat 2 and bubble canopy will have one seat. She doesn't really have any landing gear. I was thinking of cutting open the sides to create ramp panels but its all build around a box. A lot of cutting and eyeballing. Im thinking of starting over but its cool to have it parked near the BMF.

 

WOOOW!!! This must be the first scratch-built model of the Ghost! Great job!

 

I know there is a kit coming. Ive seen the finished product. Its awesome. Just wait very soon. Thats all i can say

 

After finally getting the small diecast and the cake topper, I can honestly say that I really want to go back and redo it or at the least build another more accurate model. I love designing toys for whatever. I build an EBON HAWK in the vein of Kenner's Millennium Falcon. I really just wanted to see it as big as the BMF and have the small Phantom shuttle as scale. Granted the scale is off but I think it works as a parallel to the BMF. I know it isn't exact and its distorted but I still dig it. Thank you for the kind words.

 

GK or "official"?

 

Hmmm. Thats a tough one. Technically. Both. But will have to get back to you on that

 

Well, let me ask it this way:

Will it be from ... Revell?

 

Taking inspiration from some of the fine folks on this forum, I decided to try and build one from the ground up ala Kenner scale. It will have a ramp Landing gear will be stationary but there will be a cargo pod delivery system that will be made. I have a lot more work but I hope you like it.

"Liked" - by your command!

 

I've added top engines and another secondary engine-4 total. Still need to word on top cowling and cockpit

 

I'm really happy with the look and the proportions. Still have a lot to do but the bulk of the work is done.

 

LOVE this so much. I've been formulating my own plans to take a crack at this myself, and you're providing a solid reference point/template for how to approach it.

 

Just a heads up for anyone looking to make the Ghost ship for 3.75 figures - take a look at these for the front turret dome gun window - very cheap!!!

Thanks. Just ordered one. The plastic lid was the closest I could find. Thank you 101. I'll post it attached when I get it. By the by. It looks perfect.

 

Looking at the cake topper 'model', the engines appear to be 'mag-lite' style flashlights, of all things... or similar.
