Kuhn Global - Royal Naboo Cruiser by REL

Excitement reigns over me once again!

I received the 41 inch Royal Naboo Starship from Richard (REL) a few days ago! What a BEAUTIFUL Beastie it is! Since the chroming technique is still in the works, Richard painted this one for the collection as if it were as used and old as the Millenium Falcon in Ep IV. I though the idea unique and it turned out wonderful! An actual CHROMED version may follow soon!

I apologize for my unprofessional pictures. Some turned out grainy, and when I attempted to fix them, they just got worse due to my lack of knowledge of Photoshop! LOLOLOL. I am as less a talent in that as I am in building these models! LOLOLOLOL .... Which is why I am only a collector!

I attempted to take some Blue Screen shots and my lighting techniques obviously need some work. I think I will have the collection completely photographed by a professional from now on! LOLOLOL… well, at least for the web site that they will be displayed on.

Once again I attempted to make corrections in Photoshop and had limited results from my lack of practice. And the model still shows well!

The bottom line is that Richard’s (REL) Royal Naboo Starship is JAW DROPPING! And truth be told… I did fly it around the room once or twice! LOLOLOLOLOL

Thank you once again for your continued excellence Richard!

Next up! An ORIGINAL Red 5 build from Bob (Hand Solo)!!

If you didn't, I would have been dissapointed. :lol

Rich knows what I think of the boiler-plated finish (stylistic heresey! :) but, as usual, he did a terrific job on the master.

I'm in the process of building the same model, and I hope to see more REL-produced Naboo ships in the not-too-distant future.

Kurt: If, as you hinted, a fully chromeified version of this ship should find its way to your doorstep I hope you'll favor us with a few pix...
