Add to the above all 6 variants of the starship enterprise, a Voyager, a night vision equipped panther tank, a Famo german tank recovery truck with trailer, a Russian SA-13 A/A missile tank, a Marine corps AAV7 with the EAAK armor package, a British warrior fiels maintenance vehicle,and about 50 pollyS and testors acryl paints and that wraps up the rest. I FEEL SWAMPED. after the Xwing though im going to put the finishing touches on both my 1/48th strike valks.

Your wife got you all that? How'd she know what you wanted, looks like you got yourself a good woman, hold on to her.

She musta really missed you eh?

Oh yeah she missed me. She basically searched the net while i was gone, emailed me a big list to pick from and out of my choices she drew her own . That way she knew what i was looking for but i hqad so many choices i still didnt know what she was going to get out of it all.

That Falcon is incredibly awesome. Though I would never dare to buy it because of that sick amount of parts. It would just end up in the closet for the rest of my life, haunting my mind in the nights :p

No mods whatso ever. Aside from adding the blast marks with a small grinding bit on a dremel. ALL the parts came in the kit as is. It is 99% accurate to the filming model . The only thing i found wrong in the kit was the decals. The grey for the panels was too brown in tone and the red wasnt even red, it was more of a dark burgundy color.

I believe the mandible conspiracy is largely due to the questionable Star Wars Technical Journal blueprints. Everybody talks about how off the SWTJ and SW:GTS blueprints are but when they want them to be they're cannon. It does appear tho' that on the SW Chronicle book they taper in slightly. But weather that's just the top of the manidble or the actual sides I dunno.

In any case, it's too much of an effort for me. I'm perfectly happy carving blast marks in it.

Im ignoring the whole mandible thing. I have 2 pics where the ones on this filming model appear to be paralell and they are pulled straight from the film. other still images i have seen all seem to show a mild distortion due to a mild fisheye to the lense and taking pics of models as large as thse requires such a lense and depth of field that perspective will get all messed up. The model looks fine to me. my story sticking to it.

The 32 incher and 5 footer have an amazing amount of weathering. All sorts of little streaks, spatters, rust stains, dents, dings, scrapes, and tears.

Most noteable is are the grease smears running down from the laser turrets.

Small Update on the 1/72 Battroid Milia 

Got the Boosters done! :D Only took me  2 weeks :(

Looks really good. I hope you finish sometime soon. I'd like to see the finished product.

Posted

On my workbench until this evening: My digital camera, which is now fixed. Thus, I have a pic for you!

Here's my VF-0A with Ghost - which really only needs decals and the contents of the cockpit...
