    STAR WARS: MILLENNIUM FALCON. "FASTEST HUNK OF JUNK IN THE GALAXY!"

    Well it is finished. Glad too, hardly any room to work on it and I have had severe issues with my hands and legs.

          I wasn't sure regarding the light strip, as the build thread guys pointed out-it could have been two. But, it seems to have worked okay.

          I used, Aquacolour acrylic metalgrey for the inserted panels, and a basic black oil wash that was dragged using cosmetic foams. Then I used raw umber in places and again dragged. I also used acrylic aluminium, smoke pigment for the scorch marks on top of the aluminium, this was sponged, dragged and blended using my finger. I also used a sandstone pigment to show dust/muck. The whole thing was then sealed in matt varnish. I could have done more or less but I am happy with it. In fact Moni, this will be last build for a while, no more models to do, but these large builds have really hurt me, I have suffered with severe hand/arm cramps and am having pains in my legs, think it is rest time.

          Glad you like it, enjoyed it immensely but never again, just have to sell it now.
