Really starting to come together now, and bloody heavy I might say also. 3D printed exhaust ports look the goods, really happy how they turned out. The top half is now on to save bench space, but still lots of detailing and weathering to go. Still haven't decided on how to display it yet. Any body who is out there that got the display arm that you attach to the wall - is that any good? My display space is limited at this current time, and I am tossing up if I go that route, and if it is still available. Enjoy spacejunk attached the following image(s):

Excellent work, and yes it is heavy and awkward to pick up.  Mark

I've been following your build for awhile now and it is really stunning how it is all coming together. Salute to your perseverance. Don't worry about display space, this belongs in a museum. Well done Sir!

Thanks so much for your kind comments, it means a lot.
Onwards and upwards. With this pandemic going on, I have achieved more in a short space of time that I would of normally.

Truly amazing work. As far as the provided arm goes, it is just a tv wall mount. With proper tightening of the joints it holds very well. Mine has been set at the same slightly cocked angle for almost 3 years. But it is very difficult to mount the Falcon on it by yourself. Get some trusted help!

Ok, final building complete, now just need to do final weathering and its done. Starting on a diorama base, have an idea in mind but we will see how that turns out. Enjoy. spacejunk attached the following image(s):

Very impressive work. That is going to be a big diorama given the size this beast is.  Looking forward to seeing what you come up with. Mark

OK, I am calling this done. Finally after a break in the weather here down under, I could finish off the final details. Here it is in all her glory. I also have a vid up on my youtube channel as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zmoBLvnLv4Q

Thanks Mark, it certainly takes up some shelf space now.
