Cheers  :)

Wookie is IA with a weapon change
Full weapon change or just the front of the weapon?
What did you use in the swap?

I think letting the prisoner keep their blaster rifle was proabably a mistake  lol

I've just read the last 25 to 30 pages including the Salute build and you deserve all the plaudits  posted.
Well done Sir. It's all pretty stinning.

Thanks  :)

Got a chance to finish off the 1:72 Falcon I bought a few weeks ago so it matches the 1:350 Bandai Falcon shown a few pages previously. It's called Orion's Eye and is a favourite of the rebels to try and sneak past Imperial patrols etc. It's about 310mm long and although the scale is small I think it'll fit ok.







The kit itself is a bit naff and would need a lot of work to make it into the Falcon but it'll certainly do for a bit of a table filler and scenario objective  :)
cheers

Really like the converted freighter, and the fact that you’ve got a ”space” scale model to go with it. Hoping to do something similar with my own project.

Can’t wait for another battle report  ;)

Thanks chaps  :)

WEG were my main inspiration after the films (this was before the prequels) and even though it's now 'Legends', for me it's all still applicable  :)

Looks the part. Like the way you've done the same colour scheme on both.

There was quite a bit of difference in the details between the two kits but I'm betting the Bandai one is the more accurate  lol
