Nicely done. OH the memories. I always liked the b model too. Steve

Nice working steering wheel. Wish Lego would bring this back. Steve

There looks to be a new inverted arch piece which could be used to complete round openings on the falcon. white piece on left side. Steve

The 2X2 plate with chamfer on the walker looks new?

great use of parts on Anakin's pod racer. Steve

great looking set. You forgot 10/10 for playability. You can simulate the entire mission with this set. Steve

Small update. I started to work in the back vents and have been messing with the cockpit interior and structure. Not sure I am happy with the gaps and need to work on the gaps along the docking tubes. Steve

Making my way around the ship. Then back around again for finer details. Have a happy Easter. Steve

I was on vacation fro a week. Here is an update from today. Soon I am going to have to build a section to test out the design before proceeding. Steve

Digital glue. LOL I do try to stagger joints and at least two connecting points for each panel. the mandibles are built directly onto the frame structure. However The thinness and size of the falcon does not make them very swooshable. Steve

I have been working on a new design for a falcon. Looking at photos of the ship it has a pretty smooth outer surface. So I am trying to use as much snot techniques as I can. The scale is based on the size of the cockpit piece being 8 studs across. I have imported many photos into a cad program to get the proportions as close as I can. The dome shape id the hardest area. Here is what I have so far. Opinions? remarks? Should I stop now? Still a work in progress. Steve
