You could always use the stickers as templates. Stick them on sheet plastic then cut them out.. A Bit more work, bit it should do..
Wiseass. I asked because most of the measurements and pics I have done were off the MR. probably about a 90% to 10% ratio.
I just sent him a new batch of pics

Hey, I resemble that remark!

Still need accurate measurements of the nose cone for 3D rendering.....off the Hasbro Falcon.

Sure,
67mm outside of cone large diameter
37mm outside of cone small diameter 38.25mm at end of straight taper, there's a small ridge between the taper and the front piece.
46.89mm back edge to front edge of cone.
Any plans to upscale the gun turret interiors for the Hasbro? All I see now is an empty interior and the hole at the other end.

Another bargain here, a 99p bath gel, in the shape of a large pencil, and while it might be hexagonal in shape, and I was after something octagonal, (can you guess what for?) it should be easy enough to cut the size I want twice and make an octagon from two of the hexagons split down one side.
As an added bonus the box it comes in is a good source of clear plastic in itself.

Hey guys,
For those looking for side panels, seriously do what i done a grab some from a vintage Falcon. You can find loads of spare parts and empty shells on the bay, and ive seen a set of the panels sell for £10 shipped this week. You need to trim them down a little, but its well worth it plus they are actual panels. Mine are in the pics.
Just got another coat of primer on mine. Im working on a tight budget as many are, and im using spray primer that costs £1 a can
Ive got 2 coats on now and done a tape test and its sticking Onwards we go...

Quick question-what colour is the Falcon again ?? Im popping out to buy some bits soon, and am going to pick up the paint hopefully. Is it just a light grey-or is there a tinge of creme/white with it??

With all these great tips on construction, does anyone have ideas about decals for this puppy?

I'm def putting a simple lighting rig in mine, they will only be cheap crimbo lights but I'm sure I can make it look professional if I take my time.
I haven't even thought about decals, I don't even know where they go. I know this is bad,bad,bad, but I may do the obvious one above the cockpit from the 5'

Im am also. I found a complete electronic kit that was taken out from a Legacy Falcon for $20 on Ebay. Cant beat that! So it will have sounds as well.
_Lee_ here is my paint tutorial with the colors I used. It might help:

Well they aren't perfect but they will do..
(click pics)
The bad news is the sidewalls will almost certainly need moving back a bit.
I made these as thin as I could but its not enough,
I'm sure there will be the same problem with the shape ways parts or casts from them.
here's a real one, much much further back.
