Build The Millennium Falcon - with Cudzndrips! - Blu-ray Forum

cudzndrips · 01-19-2015, 01:29 PM

Hey folks, thought it might be a good idea to share my building of the 1:1 scale model replica of the Millennium Falcon. This part-work series comes from DeAgostini and lasts 100 issues over 2 years. Yup it's really gonna take that long to build and by the time it's finished we'd have already seen Episode 7 plus the first SW spin-off movie and we'll be awaiting the release of Episide 8 in theatres.

I'll be uploading monthly photos of the collection plus a few pics of the parts I have already constructed so here we go.......

ISSUE 1

"A look at the rear of Issue 1 packaging"

"Each issue has detailed guides and SW info"

"Each issue also has guides how to build every part"

"Issue 1 comes with a 1:1 scale blueprint - you can get a scale of just how big this will be when finished by the size comparison of the Blu-Ray SW Steelbook"

1:1 scale???

Doesn't that mean that the thing will be bigger than most houses?

Now... if they were to do this with the USS Enterprise NCC-1701-D... my wife would probably divorce me for neglecting her completely! Between films and video games and work, I'm already thin on time as it is!

It's a 1:1 scale model of the model used in Empire Strikes Back.

That's looking great already. Wish I had more time to devote to this project. Between my lenticulars and groupbuys I just can't squeeze it in, yet. I must have around 35 issues still bagged up unopened (god I hope there's no dented parts lol).

Finally finished off the painting on the underside of the hull. Just got to scratch up / battle damage some of the colour panels.
