The crew have arrived


Excellent! Those figurines/statues from Disney are of great detail! I really like the sculpts and quality of  painting!
Over the years I received a few of those key chain figurines along with some custom fodder. THose key chains are in 1/24 scale and I love to display them next to Hasbro's underscaled vehicles. The BMF is one of them.
Now, are these figures from Disney rather 1/18 or 1/24 scale, too?
Thanks for your reply btw!

Yeah they are about 1/18 scale and a bit smaller than 3.75 figures. But they scale ok with others if u have a droid or something you want to display next to them. wish the paint was a little better though :/

The lighting looks really good. Nice job with the rewiring. I think that your work putting together the new nose section is really excellent. I like the new radar dish too.
Thank you. I was worried the new nose section was getting to look chunky but I'm trying to get it to gradually slope down instead having it in steps like before and also trying to get rid of any seams.

So today I once again reworked the nose section. Something just wasnt right about it. I was able to get to slope down the way I wanted it to by finally giving in and scratch building it from styrene. Its a rough cut of what I want but i think I'm going to stick with this version and detail it . also started painting the cockpit 😁

Hey guys. Been working a lot lately but made some progress. Reworked the oval vent covers I had originally sculpted because they looked kinda bad. But these are made from styrene. Did some detail work on them and added the hoses on the left one. Also getting closer to finishing the paint job as well. Next will be the lighting in the cockpit. Enjoy :)

Sorry for my late reply. I'm on the computer now and just took a closer look at the crew. I think they look pretty decent! Of course faces are always a challenge to paint correctly. I cannot make faces look halfway okay, but I'm sure those Disney figurines look like junk compared to your skills. I can send you some pictures of G scale figurines for 1/24 scale model trains if that makes you feel better ;) From my perspective they look good.
Your Millenium Falcon project is very remarkable! Much respect for your sculpting skills, too!
Thanks for the update! It's definitely time to celebrate that progress!
