I see you even recreated the correct placement of the differently colored viewers...nice touch buddy!

have mine mounted to the wall as well, but still chose not to paint my two tone viewers yet. I honestly like it that way, despite being not accurate
 
Re: Project updates 21 Jan 2017 - Death Star Camera WIP

questions...

do the lower viewers have the metal parts attached -as seen on your JY post-?
where did you get reference from, where to place the red stickers on the underside?
what are the white "strips" on the front edges of the viewers?

thx in advance buddy
 
Re: Project updates 21 Jan 2017 - Death Star Camera WIP

I removed all the 'handles' but I believe the metal slide switched are still present. Watch the scene in the movie, you can see the white stripes and there are also white round stickers to be added.
 
Re: Project updates 21 Jan 2017 - Death Star Camera WIP

At least 2 of the inner lenses were removed from the viewers.

And without them the metal plates don´t hold.

Maybe. Could have been any - they worked so careless, i don´t believe they gave such things a thought.
 
Project updates 28 Jan 2017 - Leia RotJ resin build with upgrades complete.

Finished the resin Leia RotJ upgrades. Probably my finest resin build to date.

With real ANH. I originally had the real one converted to RotJ so I'm occasionally getting confused when I see them together!

Project updates 28 Jan 2017 - Resin Leia RotJ build complete / Bapty E11 stunt update

Hehe... thanks Mark.

Also getting there with my Bapty ANH stunt. I wanted the rail to be as accurate as possible so it's steel and wider than most. Was a nightmare to bend bend with hand tools but got it right on my third and final attempt!

How'd you do that gunmetal color on the Leia blaster? It looks dead on!

Where'd you source those dagummed side cubes?!

Looks lovely!
 
Re: Project updates 28 Jan 2017 - Resin Leia RotJ build complete / Bapty E11 stunt up

The paint is flat black and graphite powder.

The cubes are just rubber bumpers but I can't find them any more. I've had them for over ten years.
 
Re: Project updates 28 Jan 2017 - Resin Leia RotJ build complete / Bapty E11 stunt up

I had the same exact issue, but was short just one bumper!

Sidewinder came up with this super secret technique!

Noooo, no no, I just passed on what i'd heard.
