Deagostini Falcon. Anyone seen this?

Yeah that really sucks, but I'm sure that once the actual ramp and it's electronics are shipped, someone will figure out a way to make the interior look better... just hope they'll be able to figure it out with a working ramp and hopefully won't have to sacrifice the motorized opening and closing to do so!

Nice to see salzo agreed with my point on bonding the frame, his looks very strong
At least the metal frame is shaped upward in the hatch so it's not hanging in the door opening. Either way, that frame is going to be in the way of any interior someone creates unless you chop it out.

Wow. These guys are really out to please with this model. Loved the video... I wasn't going to touch the finished falcon, but now I'm not sure.
I love how they're handling mistakes, tutorials, everything. If this continues I will no doubt jump on future models from the Star Wars universe.
I know right!
I love how you just KNOW that Steve is one of us... the guy knows his stuff! He's also a very big fan and a builder on top of that. He's got that builder sense of humor that you gotta love! I love how he addressed "Don't glue the cockpit on! Don't do it!!" Awesome stuff for sure. Can't wait to get more of this baby!

"Oh, I hope they don't screw up the... the tank part... cuz that... that would be AWFUL if they did!"
I have to agree, 99% right is still really good! I f I feel the need to fix the 1% that might be wrong, there are several avenues I could do that: Shapeways parts, scratchbuilding, kit-bashing...

he is not one of us, he is a banned member who owes people a LOT of money, myself included.
Oh weird... an individual on some kind of run? or as part of a company?

Whaaaat? Joking? Please explain.
Are you getting him confused with Steve Niesen?

There is no way the model details are 99% accurate like Steve says. It's a good looking model, just like the MR falcon, but it's far from being 99% accurate.

i'm not a studio scale guru by any means (this is my first one) but even i can tell that the details resemble the kit parts used.
it is in no way or will never be screen accurate.
with a good paint job and some extra detailing this could be a very nice piece.
built straight from the packets and assembled this will be a BIG let down for many people.
