Iz,

Here is a close up of the throttle greeblie. As always, kudos to Starkiller for the 3D design

This is cool.

I was hoping someone would do this for the 1/12" scale like the 6" Black Series (Han and Chewbacca are great) and Bandai models also make an awesome 3-CPO at 1/12" as well.
I also played around with scaling the MF and came up with about 10 feet long. Is that right?

Considering the full-size 1/6 scale ship is 18 feet long, I'd say 1/12 at 9'-10' is indeed just about right.

Cool. Once I worked out the length, I decided anything larger than a single sheet 8 x 4 sheet of MDF was not going to happen any time soon due to it being un-practical.
I am still interested in doing just the cock pit and have a section of 10" pipe that may serve the purpose.
 
Man great stuff there ! Has anyone ever sized the saucer on a 1/6 scale falcon. I've got a 12 foot satellite dish. LOL just kidding, I do have the dish but working on the five footer, and its plenty big enough.
I was thinking that too, use the satellite dish as a master for heating styrene sheet into :)
 
OMG! Those little rocker switches! I already feel sorry your fingers with all the filling and sanding that's about to happen. Dont forget the little black dot :)

Question: Are you using foamcore for the main build? If so, will you be covering with sheet styrene?

Looking great so far!

I think I'm going to stick with foam core. and Like I did with the X-wing I will cover it in Styrene. :)
