Wow I'm blown away by that. My perpetually twelve year old brain keeps flashing back to Han being hung in Jabbas Palace. Awesome build! You should be very proud. Makes me want to start one!
I'm getting close to the end of my build before final paint, but the texturing is driving me nuts and hard to get just right. I just got my touch ups in sanding done last night and stood it up to get an overall look and for the most part am happy with it, but I still feel I need to add a little more wood glue to the textured surface to smooth some of the more sharp details out. And thoughts overall? I know it's never going to be 100% perfect and I think that's what bugs me, hahaView attachment 475283

Looks awsome! I know a lot of us on here are probably big fans of Adam and tested and I will quote his wife "you are 8 year-old yous freaking hero!" Well done!
Thank you very much. I can't recommend this build enough. I had such a great time on this one. My wife actually wants me to build another and sell it. Ha! I need a break before I would even think of doing that.
It looks pretty straight forward and simple, but it actually takes quite a lot of effort. If I didn't have any children I'm sure I could have knocked this out in a few weeks, but I did what I could with the time I had and just kept my eye on the prize of getting this thing done and all the months and bits of time here and there are finally showing.
QCWolf, how long did your whole project take to get all done?
That looks amazing, great work! The spot light at the top is a great touch that I still want to do to mine, and those backlights really make it look incredible. Mind if I use some of your photos in my FS threads? Very nicely done on the hero panel.
Man, that is so freaking cool.
Thanks! A friend of mine likes it so much that he asked me to build him one. I think I might take him up on it. Is it too much to do another build thread for a second one? Ha!
You'll have some panels in the oven soon Wolf!

You will have to re-title it to Expert build though.
This is REALLY impressive from start to finish! Great job!!
Great build! I'm inspired to try one of my own.
