Re: Bandai 1/72 Millennium Falcon
Thanks for that
It is weird though how different AS-20 looks here compared to my Fine Molds Falcon.
I used AS-20 on it, but went over a base of AS-16 (Light Grey) which in turn was over grey plastic
Maybe the pic isn't properly color balanced, but it looks how it appears in person to me
I tried to get both sunlit and shade areas
but then again, here is straight AS-20 onto the Bandai plastic which does appear a closer match to your swatch, but for me, does not really look like that in person
It is more like this in person
The only difference I think is the amount of sunlight on it
I thought this may be helpful to some. Here is a paint swatch I did to compare Tamiya AS-20 with Archive-X Reefer white. Both are painted onto black primer with a white strip for color balance. The black primer definitely makes the colors more grey.
