building my own millenium falcon

[Millenniumfalsehood]

Actually the chair looks like the right size to my eye. Well done, dnalor! :thumb:

 

[dnalor]

Yes..
And it looks great in reallife.

Now up to the next part.

 

[dnalor]

this was a difficult part for me because of the size.
up to the next one.

 

[Zathros]

I waiting for the "full" photo, showing how big this model actually is!

 

[dnalor]

the main hull.

 

[dnalor]

Side detail (the first)
and the details (first 2) for in the 8 holes in the front upper and lower.

 

[dnalor]

yes the build of the main hull has started at last.:mrgreen:

But now i have to figure out how to connect the both parts..
I have made some connection strips and at one part.
but when i sandwich them...how do i glue the other side?

hum...

 

[dnalor]

That's the top.

 

[arkon]

you have a nice build goin on there sir!!

 

[dnalor]

Yes
the fitting of the side details look great sign1
i used another falcon detail for it..
and it fits with some rescaling
But now i have to go all around with the details.:mrgreen:

 

[F131]

Nice "fine" detailing. She is looking great!

 

[dnalor]

Yes it starts..
First i thought it was to much..
but now it looks kind a cool.

 

[dnalor]

Now detailing the side the falcon..
it's hard...i don't know how you guys do those little papercrafts...


or are my hands to large!?.

 

[dnalor]

For the holidays i took the other side of the falcon (cockpit side) home.
But after 2 bad movies i build that allready..
Now eveything is drying...

Now i''m looking for some thick paper to build the engine flaps..
The idea of the engine comes from this site
http://www.kartonbau.de/wbb2/thread...0&sid=76742d1d1f5ac7aa033462f6d9078b4b&page=2

It looks great.. maybe i can do that also
(the first 2 pictures are from kartonbau for the engine i want)
the other are mine.

Hello, I love this model. Yours is great. What scale is it about. Do you have strengthened the paper. What weight. Sorry for my bad english

 

[asgard85]

I'm sorry, I did not notice the cardboard backing

 

[dnalor]

Hi..
Well for the big objects i use cardboard.
The parts are printed on normal paper 80grams.
and all the small parts are first glued on thick card-paper which is used for kellogs cerial boxes..etc.etc

then i fold it..and put in on a large part

And then i hope stays on.

the scale i really don't know.
it's around long 1.3m...

 

[Cuthbert]

I built this model from the same site a while ago.
All the details that you added are outstanding.

 

[dnalor]

Hi,
Yes i hope they all fit..
