Literally the best paint I’ve seen on the Bandai 1/72 Falcon… congratulations on getting that look 😍

Lovely work! I've still got my kit in its box as I'm still building up to doing this one and I've got loads of 1/12 custom figures to finish first, but it's great to see your process!

I agree with the subtle engine vent weathering, I've seen some really nice falcon models spoiled by over enthusiastic weathering in this area 😉👍

Absolutely amazing. Just got hold of one of these and I’m torn on whether to use the decals for the panels or paint them? I’m a a new modeller so will make time for lots of practice before I attempt the actual model. Is it easier to paint the model in broken sections or build it all then paint it? Any help for a nervous beginner welcome 👍🏻

Awesome tutorial on that panel! Have to find myself some humbrol equivalent enamels!

They won’t work quite as well unfortunately. Maybe some oils would be a better choice.

I have yet to build & paint my first Millennium Falcon. This is profoundly inspiring. Thank you for going to the trouble of filming this. Question if you don't mind: is it better to buy the Archive-X Falcon paint set, or, if one happens to have a stack of models on the shelf, perhaps going in for the entire Archive-X bundle (42 bottles) is the better way? Thanks again!

This is awesome? Which are the books/magazines you are using for photo reference on the Falcon? Thx!

How did ILM get the splotches at the top of their streaks? If you mask 2-3 sides to form thin triangle you don't get them. I almost think it is a second step.
