Millennium falcon side panels?

[nightrider]

I'm fixing to start building an mpc falcon. I haven't had any luck getting a response from falcon kits for the side panels, so I'm considering making my own out of styrene. This will be my first attempt at making parts for myself. If anyone has any suggestions I would love to hear them. The first thing I need to know is the proper side panel height. It appears that the rear side panels are about one sixteenth of an inch higher than the front mandible sides. Not sure though.

I think that you should probably read the "super-detailing the MPC falcon" thread...

but the answer is 15 or 16mm high
