Fine Molds 1:72 Millennium Falcon (Definitive 32" Paintjob)

JV1138 ... nice build sofar ... still I think you should soften those very black stripes and splotches a little more ... so I took the liberty to photoshop your FM to show how it could improve even better in my humble opinion :

Also photographing your models on a more neutral back ground does help with determining the accurate overall colour

Thanks. I already applied matte varnish to the model, so I can't soften the streaks. I think it looks just like the studio model under neutral lighting.

Perhaps you could add just another layer on top of the varnish with just the softer striping as seen here on the MR Paint Master?

Sorry for the large file >.<

One photo in the sunlight. What do you think?

Nice job bud! Good to see you complete it..dont ever be afraid to change things or repaint if you're unhappy though as others have suggested.
But great achievement, nice weathering. Some of that streaking is difficult on a smaller model and looks to be a great job.

I love my FM falcon, yeah they have a few issues but for the regular person you dont notice them.

It's a fun build, but a time consuming one.

Cheers,
Josh
