Nice fade on the blue!
Do you have a shopping list for all the lighting parts you bought?
Carnet, I think this is the best Gold Leader paint job I have seen. Outstanding! Wanna paint mine? Lol
Wow. Gorgeous work. And I would use the stand and base as they are.
Gorgeous. Seriously, stunning. I knew from your Millennium Falcon paint job that you'd blow this out of the water, but this is REALLY nice.
Love the proportions and the proportionality of parts to the whole.
Love the custom-build - just accurate enough and just off enough in the nurnies department to make the viewer do a double-take, and say, "Hmm, that looks good" and sometimes, "Hmm, that looks even better than the original."
Love the paint job: the weathering, the fading, the chipping, the scorch and blast marks, love all of it. Looks amazing. Man, that is a serious skill set with the airbrush you have. It's also got a really nice balanced aesthetic look between "screen-used-in-motion-model-at-24-fps" and "static model that I have to look at all day." To my eye it comes off visually in slight favor of the ILM side of things and not as much the Static Model side of things, which is to my eye a perfect "imbalance" and one I hope to get close to myself.
Inspiring work. Now build the rest of them!
Also, if you don't mind, show us more: Would love to see some detailed underside pics. More detailed bulkhead pics. Detailed backplate deck pics. Vectral thruster fins, and Interior Cockpit pics -- love the multicolored dashboard lightshow.
Love it. What an awe inspiring build. The attention is detail is absolutely beautiful as is the paint and weathering.
