New BMF coming

.
Well that's...bizzarre. No, I went over mine pretty carefully to see if there was anything useable on it - I thought I might be actually able to contribute something to the cause by throwing together a file to share. Just for curiosity sake, the pieces showing the gang in the cockpit - on yours, is it a photo or a painting? Mine has a PHOTO on the front, and PAINTINGS of them on the side windows.

The cockpit has paintings of the crew, you can tell they definitely did some editing of the photos before printing up the pieces, but the photos are really High def!

Been a while since I've been able to work on mine, But I'm just about ready to start the final base coat and weathering. I'm torn between two painting methods: the ILM method with no preshading, or the way Christian did with preshading the panel lines. I may try a small area on the bottom as a test. Will post pics when I've made some progress. Oh, and my number is 42251.

Bought some sprays from Halfords today. A plastic bumper paint and the usual primer (they only had white, I normally use grey). I'm going to give the Falcon a bath to wash off any mold release and give the bumper spray a test on the inside. If it works I'll have some light blocking ready for later, if it fails it doesn't matter as it won't be visible. I'll let you know how it goes.

My number is 42461, same batch as Tony I think.
 
Thank you guys!!!

Definitively is a production batch number... No fun...
