building my own millenium falcon
- Thread starter dnalor
- Start date
just for home..
I don't think that my boss likes it. when she's hoovering above my desk
make a wall mount for her too....
Yes the lighting works..
The engine is great
The cockpit could be a little more..
and the upper turrent could be...hum...a LOT less
because there is a light leaking to the front. :-(
i installed electricity socket. in the under turrent
so that i can take the falcon from the wall mount when needed.
Also i have installed the armour plating around the ship but i think i have to re-glue some of them again...

I think that tubing looks awesome. It is the kind of detail that really brings the model to life!
If you really wanted to, you could have painted the tubes a dull light gray, but other then that, I think that you are doing a GREAT job in this model.
It is detail like this that give a model that little extra special spark and sets it apart from all the rest.

What the guys above me said. The little detail is what sells the model and truly makes it yours. Spray a little dullcoat over the model to knock down the shine....but mask off any clear parts/windows.
paint it with dullcoat (but I would have thought you would want to clearcoat the model at the end of construction to add a little protection).

You can always paint the tubing! If you went to a Hobby shop, you could find grey tubing that bends really easily, with minimal heat applied. Either way, it looks really god!
I have an inkjet, and I have airbrush Futured models and spray clear coated models with no problems. The key is to do light coats.
Print out a test page and try it out.

WHAAAA...
i found the error before i got to the screws...
the battery was defective...that's why he didn't started..
(yes i tried also with the ac/dc cable)..
so with the cable and battery-> no go...
only cable and no battery -> works like a charm.
Now i need a new battery and then i'm completly mobile..again
