Damit würde ich mich gleich an Revell Abteilung X wenden, geht ja gar nicht, die Sinkstellen und auch das Fenster..

Bei Bild 1 frage ich mich, ist die raue oder die glatte Oberfläche die richtige? Bei der rauen sind die Details ganz schön verwaschen.

It would be interesting to know what a response from Revell looks like

Torsten
Nice progress 👍

Looks great. Baby yoda looks good.

Your build looks great, but yikes, I'm not thrilled with Revell's molding quality. Certainly not a Bandai Star Wars kit.

Łukasz Gliński
That looks nice, joining.

Nice build, I think I'll follow. 🙂

Robin (WhiteGlint)
Looks great. Seems to be a fun kit. 🙂

Chris T. An
Thank you all for watching. Now I have improved all the problem areas, and it was less work than expected. So in conclusion I must say that the kit is really cool, I'm enjoying the build.

Next steps are adding more battle damage and some small surface damages before painting the hull.
16 January 2022, 12:59
Gary Kitchen
Chris loving your build so far. A notch above mine for sure. Have you dry fitted the top d bottom of the hull yet? Im seeing some resistance and wondering if the cockpit is too high, although can't get it any lower.
16 January 2022, 22:41
Chris T. An
Thanks for your praise, Gary. In fact, I haven't put the top on yet including the interior block. You're scaring me now. Today or tomorrow I will probably be ready to test it. I will report back.
17 January 2022, 10:39
Gareth Burge
Looks great so far Chris, definitely keen to see how this goes. Loving the wee Grogu figures...can I ask where you sourced them from?
17 January 2022, 11:11
Chris T. An
Thank you Gareth. A good friend of mine printed the figures and he told me that he got the files from Thingiverse for free.
17 January 2022, 12:31
Pierre Pierre
my problem is : I just bought one for my christmass tree 🙂 and now I really do not know how my skills is not at your level and I still want to do something worth seeing for everyone ! I need an orginal idea for this kit 🙂 congrat it is really amazing detailling
17 January 2022, 15:45
Chris T. An
So Gary, I had no bigger problems with putting the parts together. Some putty and sanding will be required but the cockpit height is ok. Maybe the Mando figure is too tall. I did not use it inside the cockpit.
@Pierre: please don't give a damn about my abilities. I also only boil with water and patience is probably the biggest challenge. The metallic paint job already makes me feel sick. I've seen great finishes on the Razor Crest with LED lights and so on... that I will never be able to achieve. So don't worry, just do it.

I wouldn't waste my money on any revel kit.

Torsten
Very nice progress. When I see the pictures after assembly, the model seems to become quite a hunk. I'll keep the idea of the orange in the engines in mind, I'm not that talented in electronics either. I am curious about the further painting of the metals. Do you have pictures of the "original" or do you work intuitively?
22 January 2022, 09:30
Chris T. An
Torsten, for inspiration I have been looking for various photos from the series and also for built models. With this input, I am now trying to design the surface according to my ideas. I guess it would be really hard to render every single panel exactly like in the movie, because there are just no clear color specifications for every square inch of the surface. It's science fiction, so you can let your imagination run wild.
22 January 2022, 19:12
Pierre Pierre
hi can you let us know which technique did you use to differenciate pannels ?
23 January 2022, 12:21
Chris T. An
Of course, I masked off all the panels one after the other and sprayed them with the airbrush. 😉
No no, I wanted to do that first, but have previously tried another method that works great:
3-4 drops of metallic paint (Vallejo Model Air Aluminum) diluted with 2 drops of water and then mix a drop of tinting color (light brown, dark brown, black, gray, etc.). The whole thing can then be distributed very well with a fine brush on the individual panels, without seeing brush strokes. The recessed panellines help wonderfully.
23 January 2022, 14:10
Robin (WhiteGlint)
Sounds like a nice way of doing this. Otherwise you'd need all that time and more for masking. 👍
23 January 2022, 15:21
Rui S
Your paintjob is simply looking excellent, inside out 👍
23 January 2022, 15:27
Ben M
Nice way to color panels.
23 January 2022, 15:53
Tim van Dooremalen
Interesting technique for the panels. Got to remember that one.
23 January 2022, 16:15
Erik Off
The panels really look good.
23 January 2022, 16:43
Spanjaard
it sounds a hell lot faster than masking and airbrushing. and certainly looks good
23 January 2022, 18:16
Christian Lehmann
👍
23 January 2022, 19:15
Gary Kitchen
Still going strong Chris. Great work on the metallic externals, certainly adds a touch of individuality. Otherwise all these Razor Crests will look a bit samey. Interior nozzle choice is interesting too 👍.
23 January 2022, 19:50
Vincent
Very nice work until now. keep it up!!!
23 January 2022, 20:57
Gary Victory
Fantastic work Chris. Looking good.
25 January 2022, 07:33
Dietmar Bogatzki
Nice paint and weathering job, Chris 👍
25 January 2022, 07:36
Torsten
Maybe I missed it, but did you use the decals from the kit? I had read that there could be problems with the cover due to the metallic surface and that it is too translucent.
29 January 2022, 09:03
Chris T. An
Torsten, yes I used the decals. Wanted to try it and if it hadn't worked well, I would have removed it again and painted it myself. But I had no problems. With Microscale Set and Sol the decals sink wonderfully into the recesses, there is no silvering. And after the first wash they don't look so "artificial" anymore.
29 January 2022, 22:06
Torsten
Thanks Chris, I'm currently collecting all the info on the build so I can get mine to work just as well one day 🙂
30 January 2022, 08:33
JD
I've been meaning to say something about how fantastic the paint job looks, and how cool the build is and all, but even as a Star Wars nerd, I've yet to see a single episode of the Mandalorian.. how embarrassing 🥺
30 January 2022, 22:45
Gareth Burge
Agree on all counts there JD! stunning work on the painting...high target for the rest of us! As for not watching Mando yet JD? Go and sit on the naughty step and don't come back until you've watched it! :-D
31 January 2022, 12:23
Torsten
Looks better and better, great job 👍
5 February 2022, 11:49

Phantastic result! 👍

Nathan Dempsey
Your finish makes me want to purchase this kit.
5 February 2022, 12:57
Tim van Dooremalen
The addition of a little Grogu really finishes it off! How big (or small) is that 3D-printed Grogu anyway?
5 February 2022, 13:05
Robin (WhiteGlint)
Very well weathered. 👍
5 February 2022, 14:35
Chris T. An
Thank you all. Next step is creating a simple landig pad for the Razor Crest to take the final pictures.
Tim, the Grogu is 9mm small. 😉
5 February 2022, 18:24
Gary Kitchen
Going strong Chris. Looking fabulous. I hope I can get even somewhere near this and I'd be happy.
6 February 2022, 09:12
Zsolt Czegle
Great work! 👍 The Force was with you!
9 February 2022, 19:47
Gareth Burge
Outstanding work...weathering is spot on. Now I just need to find somewhere that will sell me a 1/72nd Grogu.... 🙂
10 February 2022, 08:39
Brandon H
Top notch work here, Chris!
10 February 2022, 13:26
Torsten
It was very exciting and interesting to follow your construction of the Razor Crest. Some of it I will implement when building mine and also benefit from your experience. In the end, in my opinion, a very nice model has come out and the base supports this very effectively, because you look more at the model. Congratulations 🙂

Now I just have to see how I get to the little figure, which is for me the icing on the cake 😄
11 February 2022, 14:31
Simon Nagorsnik
Awesome finish! I really like the weathered look!
An ollover well done paint job, very nice presented 👍
The little yoda and the inside details enliven the whole thing very much.
11 February 2022, 14:54
Guy Rump
Very impressive modelling and weathering 👍
11 February 2022, 17:07
Dan Ledbetter
Spectacular work!
11 February 2022, 17:30
Spanjaard
It certainly looks great
11 February 2022, 21:20
Robin (WhiteGlint)
Result is great! Awesome weathering and little Grogu is a very nice detail. 👍
11 February 2022, 22:22
Thomas Bischoff
great result! I especially like the exhausts - looks very cool and convincing and I can only repeat that little Grogu is the icing on the cake 👍
12 February 2022, 07:59
Chris T. An
Thank you all so much for your positive words. I appreciate it very much. 😉

I have now taken a few more photos with less light, so the illuminated landing platform comes better into its own.
13 February 2022, 07:16
Rui S
Incredible finishing 👍 Never expected you would do this kind of weathering. Great
13 February 2022, 17:15
Daniel
I was just browsing around, wondering if I should maybe try something new, maybe some SciFi, weathered heavy metal, bounty hunter style and then I see this build - Dude, this is beyond awesome, absolutely stunning result 👍 👍
Buying this kit.
16 February 2022, 22:53
JD
Ok, now that I'm up to episode 6 of the Mandalorian, I can definitely say.. This is the way
Well done Chris!
23 February 2022, 20:13

So JD, how could you stop watching without completing the whole season? 🤣
1 March 2022, 15:51
Tim van Dooremalen
Where did you get the additional figures?
1 March 2022, 18:26
JD
Well…🙄 it's mostly a money thing. my cable bill is already through the roof, and I have a kit buying addiction to feed.🤭
1 March 2022, 19:07
Chris T. An
Tim, the figures are a resin print with my new Elegoo Mars 2 Pro. I was so excited about my friend's Grogu filament 3D print, so I figured a resin printer would be perfect for a modeler. I'm still exploring exposure times and support settings. But it's coming along.
2 March 2022, 09:50
Gary Kitchen
Looking better and better every time I see it. 👍
2 March 2022, 16:44
Tim van Dooremalen
Cool to hear you've got your own 3d printer now! Could you add a close-up picture of just the figures perhaps? And where did you download the file?
3 March 2022, 17:51
Dietmar Bogatzki
Is the Slave I also from Revell, Chris?
3 March 2022, 17:56
Chris T. An
Dietmar, yes, the Slave 1 is Revell. You can find my build here:

Tim, I have now uploaded the pictures of the figures. The files are free from thingiverse.com

Dietmar Bogatzki
Thanks Chris, seems that i missed that 🙁
4 March 2022, 17:26
Tim van Dooremalen
Thanks for the pictures! I'm amazed by the print quality at that size 😮
4 March 2022, 18:17
Chris T. An
Again thanks to you all. I will try to print a Mandalorian Naboo N-1 Fighter some day, so that there are 3 ships all together.

Jörg Schäfer
A very well made model.

CaptGPF
Masterpiece build! But I think the "defects" you pointed out in the earlier slides were actually dings and dents Revell thoughtfully put into the kit so you don't have to! 😱. If you notice in Season 1, the poor ship had to go through quite a bit of abuse, so Revell did you a favor. The flash you see on the kit was also a bonus…. 🤨

Album info

Welcome to this cool Star Wars build. First I just want to show a few close ups of problem areas because there are several discussions on the web.

Don't get me wrong, I think the kit is great and I'm excited to have started now. As a reasonably accomplished modeler, it's nothing you can't handle. Nevertheless, of course, annoying for such a new tool.

So folks, it's not a Bandai, but it's not a 70's kit either. So feel free to try it. The details are impressive.
