discussion Revell 1/72 Millennium Falcon repaint

[Alan 45]

not too long ago I bought a couple of revell Star Wars snap kits I wanted to see if I could improve them or at least get some practice in with oil paints well I've had I mess about this morning and come up with this

All I did was give it a new coat of paint with revell stone grey then a black oil wash rudder down with a kitchen towel to speed up drying

This is what it looked like out of the boxView attachment 90474
