Wow. That turned out awesome! Excellent work. Looks like it could be a studio model

:eek, just....:eek. Stunning. I mean, the whole thing is absolutely gorgeous, but, wow, your hull colour looks like it could have leaped of the screen of ESB.

I just noticed on the underside view you put in landing lights, fiber optics?
Nice touch , I was thinking about doing this on mine but everyone that I've seen done are huge and unrealistic...not yours.
Looks appropriate for the size, well done sir.

Thanks fellas! Yes, used .75mm fiber optics. I'm kinda wishing I ran my lights parallel from the same power source so I could of turned on multiple lighting schemes, like with one switch turn on the engines and cockpit, with another turn on headlights and landing lights.

 

[Jaitea]

She looks perfect kokkari,....just the right amount of weathering

The lighting is spot on too

.....now.....where the hell are you going to display it?,.....it's huge

It's so beautiful i could cry

 

[Robiwon]

Beautiful. Yes, I think we need a Finished photo thread for the Hasbro Falcons. Is the Hasbro Falcon the greatest toy in the world or what???????

wow... that's so incredible kokkari, everything about it! Really making me want to get mine out of the box and get started on it!! (and I'll have to buy a set of resin parts from you at some point too) - sorry if it's been mentioned further back and I've forgotten... what base hull colour did you use under all that amazing detailing?

 

[PHArchivist]

Stunning finish work...

I went with Model Master Camouflage Gray. When you first paint it, it looks very tan in color, but I knew that I would be hitting the model with the airbrush incessantly with grays and black which would make the overall tone very cold. In the end when I compare it to my MR Falcon, the base color looks very close. Here is a photo to show it right after the base coat was applied.

Here it is next to the MR and as you can see it is less tan than it is.

 

[Vacformedhero]

Wow they look like twins, fantastic.......send me on your MR as a paint guide
in your first shot you can see the tan may be from the incandescent bulb, where daylight is hitting the engine looks whiter, in your final shot they both look like they are lit by daylight hense the whiter appearance , my hobby room all lights and lamps are daylight bulbs which helps

Thanks for the info!

Say so long to my Revell Tie before I destroy a wing for my Falcon.

Which is which? Is that FM on the right? If so, I wasn't aware the revell was a larger scale?

Yep, that's the fine molds on the right side.
