Finished DeAgostini build.

[RealDaveWinter]

Hi everyone.

Not really much to say about this post other than it's my finished DeAgostini 32" Falcon. My goal was to match the filming model, and in the process make the build seem less 'toy like', so I've left out all the interior play-set parts and corrected the exterior as much as I can. Going so far as to replace some of the DeAgostini parts with parts sourced from the real kits. I've tried to match the painting as closely as I can, but obviously individual paint splatters are going to be different.

By request, here are some photos of the bottom (rear) of the build showing how I have it mounted.

You can buy the stand from Amazon here: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B01CUT5ZZI They're about $80 CAD.

Awesome work, man. What color did you use for the base coat?

 

[RealDaveWinter]

Tamyia Insignia White AS-20. It's an almost 100% perfect match, especially when you layer all the other colours and weathering on top.

Wow. You've nailed the paint job. You've inspired me to finish mine!

Great job on this. Must have taken some time to get the paint right
