Thank you. You have assembled a realistic millennium falcon. I like the attention to detail even in the areas that are not seen. The not so random, random dents and life scars were well spaced and oriented. Looks great.
The detail in that model is phenomenal and your paintwork has made it all pop! Makes me want to watch some of the movies again as I never noticed that much detail.
Beautiful build! I loved what you said about there not being one right way to do certain things. I like watching different build videos to get ideas. There are so many creative ways to build, paint, light models etc. Thank you and all the model builders out there who truly inspire the model community!
Wonderful work! Bandai are really good at making a quality kit just on snap-building usually without any sanding or modification. But I definitely agree with you that I'd love to see them tackle real life vehicles. They're currently experimenting with dinosaur models.
For nearly most of the video I was seriously concerned Princess Leia was going to end up as the pilot. I'm glad you corrected this before the ending. Nice work!
I built one of these a couple years ago. Best model I have ever worked with. I wish it was a bit more affordable as I’d love another chance to build one.
Extremely nice work. One thing I used to do for "Blast Spots" was just a lil Powder from a Fire Cracker. Id sprinkle a lil bit on, put a Lighter to it real quick and in a 1 second flash, nice little Burned In blast point.
It really is life changing when you go to Bandai. If anything it tarnished my view a little on my favourite western brands because there really is nothing stopping them from going the same route. It's like you say about putty -- the only time I EVER have to use putty on bandai is for the occasional fuck up on my part
That was an incredibly enjoyable thing to watch thank you so much The detail and work you put into it is truly amazing .. Good luck topping that on your next project
Wish I found this earlier. Something I've learned from creating my own rendition of the DeAgostini 42" ESB Falcon is that surprisingly the Falcon does actually have yellow panels in places mixed in with the cream colored panels. I found this out by chance and ironically it was while detailing the dorsal turret's port side panel. It caused me to go back and look harder at it's original models through photos online and other references, which after a maddening two years of research led me to tell which were fake and which were real. Modeller Magic has been and is a really good resource. Now for the disturbing part. I felt Insignia White was too glossy for my tastes so I had actually settled for Titanium Silver for a more metallic look. I can hear it now. "You destroyed that Falcon!" and yet, when it was all finished, I'm actually quite happy with the results. I cheated though, I tested it out first on a $50 Bandai 1/144 kit.
Fantastic job. Tip: you can take white LED's and dip them in clear paints to change their color. Also liquid electric tape works great to stop light leaks.
Love this vídeo, thanks a lot to make it. Share with my kids who are in the Warhammer universe and star wars too. And is like watch and learn and be amazed for the model and the love and knowledge you put in the work. Finally I have to mention that that this work ( painting, dry brush, etc) is well applicable to any ship of the rebellion as well. (P.D. Sorry if my English is not good, I'm proudly from Argentina 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷. Wish you the best, and may the Force still keep on you!
the thing you said about expanding into other subjects, had exactly the same thought earlier, i'd love some aircraft, and other vehicles, kits from them. just bought my first Bandai kit, an A-wing, cant wait to start!
That's the dogs nuts.. I'd be soooo tempted to do a diorama with this or maybe a rotary stand that turns it on a tilted angle so you get all sides. The astroid scene with the giant worm would look amazing
Es todo un reto cuanto tiempo y pasiencia para llar a este resultado felicidades exelente trabajo es la nave que mas me gusta de estas peliculas todo mi respeto y admiracion .un saludo desde mexico cd
Awesome build🤌👏 fun bit of trivia, for a while in the legends version of SW the falcon was actually painted black. It was allegedly done for camouflage, but as something very bad had just happened, there may have been other motives as well.
@kerberosmodels I just subscribed and this is the first video I watched, I absolutely love how methodical you are and you put some serious love into your work. It must be frustrating doing every little bit but the end result must feel rewarding as hell. I'm gonna stick around and view your content whenever I can, seriously though your work is outstanding man. I especially loved that you talked and explained what you were doing with what equipment, not many people do. 100% a huge fan now!
Not sure why this was in my recommended vids, but enjoyed it very much. My son has built a number of the smaller star wars Bandaid models but we have not done the extra level of detail you have. Amazing work! Nice tip regarding the makeup sponge and decals. Those have always been a problem for me.
Wow! I really love the way this model turned out, what a beautiful job. I’m in the process of doing a similar model and just like to what oils and clean coats of paints you use to achieve this look. Some advice would greatly be appreciated. Again great job 👏🏽
You finished this off very well. I and like many who watched this are open mouth drooling in awe of you work. Great video! I have the1/58 scale ERTL kit. It is crude and comes up short so bad compared to this marvel. I want this to hang in a corner once a month or so like my other plastic giants.
