Fantastic mate.

Thank you everyone. I really appreciate your warm comments. I've been working on the engines. I see a lot of different colors on the original so matching exactly is pretty difficult. I think I'm up to 5 colors lol.
Light test with Boba. Went for a more accurate look for him as opposed to trying to match the one in the original model.

I love the cockpit! Great job!
This whole build is steadily getting done. It seems you didn't have any pitfalls with parts or construction. Those wing wells seem like they'd to be difficult to figure out.
What's the rust colored paint you're using on the engines? It looks like one not used before now.
Do you think you'll use any metallics on the engines? Maybe the interiors of them?

I could be totally wrong because I'm not a scale guru, but I would say 1/24 based on the size of Boba figure inside. Same size as the 1/24 SS x-wing pilots.

I love that you did that! I like that look better than going with the original studio model look myself. Everything else can be studio model accurate, but Boba Fett is half the reason we love that ship too! [emoji6]

I didn't use rust on the engines. I used yellow, then boxcar red, then a couple different grey colors. From the reference I gathered they did the same because you can see hints of each color between layers of liquid mask.
As far as the wing wells the hardest part was determining the location of the disk shaped part and the support strut because as the wings rotate that strut has to fit into a small groove within the wings. As far as all the other busy looking parts in the well, they just fit around the disc. Just a bunch of sanding to get them to fit.

Thank you! Here is a shot to give an idea of the scale.
