Beautifully made that seamHow did you do it?
With a very specialized and very expensive tool

That's not just a seam, that's an articulation for the wing to move. Sadly, the design is not realized fully and the flexibility of the Spinner is not very evident in the film.

Well, that's me and my stupid question

And this is the result.
I mixed some semi transparent resin for this, and i might even put some dim leds in them to simulate being back lit.
This is the look I'm going for:
I decide to tilted it slightly back to it a little more dynamic look to it, not too much or Deckard would spill his noodles

Not very accurate, and only slightly bigger than the Fujimi model.Not to derail, but it seems that Master Replica is doing an 11 inches Spinner (die-cast) price: $ 235
No figures in the cockpit
I am more afraid DeAgostini will do an 1/8th scale just before I finished mine
If they do it will be a £1000 over 2 years I hate that hole drip feed model making.Not very accurate, and only slightly bigger than the Fujimi model.

I do too, but the best thing is, a lot are sold un-built or partially built for far less after those 2 years

I'd love one too. I don't have a printer.
Exactly. I got a partially assembled partworks Falcon that way for 2/3 off, basically.I do too, but the best thing is, a lot are sold un-built or partially built for far less after those 2 years

Small update.
I printed the light mounting rack with a strong resin, but found it still to fragile, and opted to have it printed in Aluminium.
the price was the same for 2 sets, but still € 140,- ...
Still glad I did it, the parts are strong enough to withstand accidental bumping.

Mounted the roof light racks.
Made a more accurate side railing, I really had some trouble to choose how it would look, there is a big difference between all models big and small, and the real live version, I just made something in between all those versions
I made a hole through the whole part to run wires through, that's what I love about 3D printing.
Some big ass side mirrors, they are really big, had to check several times to make sure I did not oversize them
and replace the back light bar that better fits and can hold more accurate lighting.
