Something a little different, i've been lucky enough to have been asked by a client to build a 1/72 Revell Master Series Millennium Falcon. Not my usual build but being a big Star Wars fan I'm very much looking forward to it. Going to be using the Fast Tramp freighter lighting kit by Madman Lighting inc, with a remote power supply and a photo etched set by Para Grafix.

I had my eye on this kit when my local hobby shop was closing. Someone else scarfed it up before I got it. May the force be with you on this build.

Here is the first update on the Falcon build, started work on the photo etched cockpit, fitted the parts of the kit of the main cockpit section. I have painted those areas of the model, along with the dish. I'm happy with the method of painting I have chosen as a base, and later when the build is fully complete I will add the weathering.

Moved on to building up the upper part of the main hull with the many pieces of this kit that need to be added.

and the centre cannon section which fits into the upper hull centre section.

I have also built up one of the landing gear, using the photo etched pieces.

The photo etched kit is going to add a lot of good extra detail to this model, and will be a very nice touch.  

Thanks
