Inside the Millenium Falcon (1)

The ship’s holds, the gun turrets, the corridors etc. The work is gigantic and Im’ going to be pushed on my limits. I’ve already talked about […]

Imperial Star Destroyer (3) :
paintjob

After talking about the optical fiber and the Arduino programming, last WIP for this build up : the Imperial Star Destroyer paint job. Two major challenges in this paint job : the model is single-coloured (in fact that’s not totally true but that’s the most common representation) and the colour is hard to define : […]

Imperial Star Destroyer (2) :

I’ve already talked about lighting up a model on Fantastic Modelers but never using optical fiber. Optical fiber in scale modeling allows […]
