still a lot of work.

You've already got a very nice sense of scale there, keep going!

**adrian** · 10-31-2005, 06:09 AM

Yep, you've got the basic shape there alright.

Having already modelled this in LW I know how much work awaits you, but it's all good - keep going

OMG!! I would never have the patience for all that detail!

Looking awesome mate!!

I also built a MF for my first LW project and it looked nothing like that ..

My Falcon

Looking good so far!

**phill** · 11-02-2005, 01:53 AM

I'm working 3 hours every night this project (that is my bigest project by the way) . I'hope I will finish this ship as soon as possible

Hang on a minute!

Are you going for the 'blockade runner' polygon record?!?!

**Bog** · 11-02-2005, 04:35 PM

Definately on-course for this being a thing of genuine beauty.

Hang in there, feller.

I was going to ask you if you needed any references, but it doesn't look like it.

If you do I have about 180 reference images (10.6MB)

I was inspired from the detail of the "Blockade Runner" - thats why I decid to build the falcon but the model is going to be very "hevy" and the work goes very slow. I'm not sure that i will be able to finish this ship

Treybor - please send the reference to : [email protected]
thanks to all

just a few questions from kitbasher to kitbasher: (because I do something similiar at the moment

do you have started with a part list and model them as a seperate object?
or do you simply start and model through ?

keep on posting your progress...it looks awesome.

**phill** · 11-03-2005, 03:42 AM

I simply model through . First are the simple parts then the complicated one

**Treybor** · 11-03-2005, 10:46 AM

The ref files are enroute to you via e-mail.

**Bog** · 11-03-2005, 11:16 AM

That bit on the portside prong root, where you ramp down from a curved-edge square-shape to a ribbed tube? With the sort of reinforcement-thingies?

I love that, with my deepest heart. That really looks like proper engineering that does. I love all of it, but that's my favourite bit.
