[Craig Walker]

Very cool

Fantastic stuff

This is absolutely incredible! The attention to detail is extremely impressive. Just . . . WOW!!!!!!!

 

[D.R.37]

Amazing!

I’m simply blown away by this. I’m a structural 3D modeler and I’ve always wanted to do something like this in my off time. Is there an update?

This build is insane. Your attention to detail on this cockpit is fantastic. Can't wait to see it finished.

Trying to finish this in time for Escape Velocity in May in MD.

From your pictures, it could pass as a 1:1 movie set. Can't wait to see it with the figures.

Thanks. I was hoping to get that look.

Working on the color for the lights on the panels. I have one panel that still need switches. Any guesses which one?

Added the another detail to the over head part. Not sure what the part is but I know it goes there.

Need to repaint two of the over head lid panels;

Here is the original switches I made for the falcon. I'm deciding wether or not if I should use these new ones I made with the Printer. They are more uniformed and they seem to look better. Thoughts???

Definitely the new 3d printed ones.
Maybe a touch of silver on the ends ?

I have been working with SofaKing01 over at the RPF forum on a 1/4 and 1/6 scale kit for the freighter cockpit. A lot closer to finishing the 1/4 scale.

I also had to design some parts that needed to be printed at shapeways because we wanted the detail:

Unbelievable stuff going on here. I really admire your attention to detail on this project. It always amazes me how people find the time to progress so much with these things. Excellent work

1/4?! Geez...

Awesome work!

 

[Mad Old Lu]
