My 5 ft Millennium Falcon Build/Reference thread

[Bjorn]

Studio Kitbash, came up with an explanation for the possible source of the piece above the Kettenkrad strut part which can be found here.
Again, not definitive but a really good solution.

 

[Dimitri-Ajith]

Oh yes, thanks bjorn. Almost forgot about that one...
I and i was so stupid when i cut the landinggear to throw the other stuff away. At least, don't know where i have them...
But guess some old fashioned hand work / replication will do the j́ob.... still you need a Sload of cast then...

The following pic lists part 5 as a Mazda rotary engine. Should it be the Wankel? I'm trying to make the names the same across pics.

 

[Dimitri-Ajith]

yes wankel...

 

[jcoffman99]

yes wankel...

Thanks.
Tomorrow I may have quite a few pieces around the engines I'll be asking about. The existing parts maps kind of miss the middle of that section. Then I'll just about have the backside finished. Because I named the layers after the kits, it should be easy to identify if you have Photoshop. Once I come up with my numbering system, I'll put the kit names on the image for jpgs.

 

[jcoffman99]

If anyone can help with these parts, I'd appreciate it.

 

[Dimitri-Ajith]

2 and 4 looks like M23 to me... but can't confirm 100%

 

[Sparky70]

5 is Tamiya 1/12 Honda F1

 

[Sparky70]

1 is Nichimo 1/35 Jagdtiger

 

[jcoffman99]

Thanks all. I'm hoping to get some time in this evening working on more of the maps.

 

[Bjorn]

I feel that 2, 3, & 4 are perhaps Tyrrell 003.
Parts are similar in the M23 but not exactly the same.

 

[Dimitri-Ajith]

3 looks like 1/12 Tyrrell

 

[Dimitri-Ajith]

And this is the Nichimo Jagdtiger part Sparky mentioned...

 

[jcoffman99]

Are 3 and 4 the same piece? Both from the McLaren?

 

[Dimitri-Ajith]

1 - Probably a Radiator ... could be this one ... M23

 

[Dimitri-Ajith]

4 is probably on the M23 sprue with another part from the M23 (left) over it.. But weren't these parts already on the 'Gort maps' ?

 

[jcoffman99]

Thanks Dim. The Gort maps missed the area between the two rows of engines. You get a closeup of 1-3, and #4 engines, but that's it.

 

[Dimitri-Ajith]

If 3 is from M23 it's cut down.. but doubt that. Sorry I answer with the mysterious: 'Could be', 'can't confirm' etc... I got a lot of parts 'bagged' already, and working my way from front to back right now. I just want to confirm every part myself, besides any part maps. But it's a good exercise.
And this were a few double kits that I knew that where untouched so I could look for you...
But good to know, you map some stuff that is unmapped, thanks!

 

[jcoffman99]

Amost there...

 

[Dimitri-Ajith]

Ooh and 2 could be from M23 if it's 2 parts glued 2 together... some F1 kits shared this part if i am not mistaken. But looks like the M23 parts. (But didn't look that close.)

With the part beneath it I meant.
