:wave: Started this build for a friend... The template is meant for A4 size paper but I enlarged it to A3.

Seems simple enough :mrgreen: but as it is enlarged, I had to do quite a bit of greebling to make the details 'pop'... didn't want a flat model.:cry:

The build is slow due to the massive amount of greebling needed to make it nice. :oops: Anyway, here are the build pics...

That is going to be one nice MilFalcon!! The greebling is fantastic! :)
 
Thanks for your kind words... more to come.
In the process of MORE greebling... :oops:
 
Your attention to detail is FANTASTIC!!! You are doing an OUTSATNDING job on the this model.
The fact that you are taking the time to add all of those greebles, is most impressive.
You are not only doing this model justice, but the designer as well.
Keep up the GREAT work.
I will be following this thread.
 
Hey...another one :-)

Looks great...lets see how you do this one..

But this looks great!

i will follow this

It's always nice too see modelling fellows detailing as much as possible... and you're one of them, my friend! Good work!
:wave:
 
ah that dish is better then mine..:-)
i didn't detail that dish of mine.. this looks great...
maybe one day when i'm doing nothing i detache mine and detail it like this..
looks nice also between the legs (of the dish) :-)
 
Marco, actually they are parallel, it doesn't show up in the photos - my photography skills suck big time! lol :mrgreen:
 
Ah, the radar dish is quite easy to greeble... not too much fiddly small parts.
Quick go do it, and POST! :)
 
Thanks for dropping in! :wave:

Base structure is done (finally):oops:.

Here are the pics...

Bit late to the party, been on holiday.

Amazing work. Very crisp clean build :thumb:
Greebling takes ages, but adds depth and detail.

Do you do a mass cutting session. I find I get bored just cutting and want to start building too early.
