These are beautifull

Great work with the sphere, not easy thing to assemble to look as good as yours. I must say I dont like uhu sphere because its petals do not match panel lines so it gives away too easily it is paper model. Mojib (as well as Ninjatoes/Loefn) corrected that perfectly with his updated tie sphere...

Wow, great work. Can not wait for the template. I did not have time to do any paper model for some time and this is the model worth assembling :).

You are very welcome. Can you post a link to your animated Star Wars film?

I did my A-wing canopy by pulling hot plastic over the plug. All you need is two of theese (every hardware store have them): form a rectangle from them, put piece of plastic on them and fix all together with few of theese clamps: then put it over the stowe, into the owen or use heat gun to...

Great build

Unfortunately no updates, but not dead project - I jumped to A-wing and wanted to finish it completly first, it is almost done. Then I will return to this project

Thank you, It looks fine after white colour applied, but light reflections still shows layers here and there. One more layer of primer/filler would help it for sure. But it is not a shelf queen, so imprfections are fine and will be soon multipled after few fast repairs after the races :)

Thank you mojib :) And you are doing amazing job on Tie Bomber, it has detail level that I like and need :) It will be my todo model for sure.

Chasis: This is finished 3d model of chasis. It is 3dprinted already and drives well on the track. If the screws, that holds the motorpod to the chasis, are loose, the motorpod is floating nicly:

Car will look like this, hopefully :). This is the real thing:

Oh sure, Sanding is done on most parts. My sanding process. After the print: 1. I sprayed two layers of filler/primer 2. I sanded with 220 grit sandpaper until plastic has shown up 3. I used "superglue" gel as a putty to correct small errors in print, mainly missing/not aligned layers on edges...

Hello friends, I am 3d printig Rover Vitesse. It is slot car in 1:24 scale. Here are some pictures of a prototype 3d print which is used for testing durability and driving properties of the model. I was wery affraid of a durability of the body for slot racing. Bumps and desloting hapens a...

No progres, unfortunately. I have to finish A-wing first - my rule is to have just one unfinished model from a category. So I have one unfinished viking ship, one unfinished plane, one unfinished SW model. :) And sadly for y-wing, I will probably jump to Tie-fighter after the A-wing, because I...

Great decision to carry on. It is part of papermodeling to solve this kind of troubles with free papermodels. I know this feeling, I encountered it manytimes. Lazy production, maybe. But you must understand that designer made this model for himself. He published it only on the demand of people...
