First model in decades- Bandai Millenium Falcon

[DARTH SABER]

Beautifull paint job and weathering. What base color did you use? It looks really good.

Thanks!


I did a Vallejo black grey primer, then used Vallejo White Grey base.

Then i misted the edges and certain areas with Vellejo sand.

So the dirtying her up is mostly done with air gun? I really like the way it darkens at the edges. Did you also use a wash? I can't believe this is only 1/144. Your weathering is really well balanced.

The airbrush was only used for the general overal coloring and larger areas of weathering.
Grey black was used with the airbrush for the large impact craters, the edge of the skirt around the engine, the tips of the mandables, mandable ports and the rear exhaust ports.

The rest of the weathering was done with soft brush dipped in pastel chalk, precision Q-tips, fine brush.

No wash on it..hard for me o control a wash.

Nice work. Its really good looking. Spot on colors and weathering. Really difficult with a model that size, but you pulled it off.

It's great to see a small model with paint that's scaled down as well!
