Well, its certainty lighter. Dunno if changing it panel by panel would be a good idea. It'll end up all sorts of different shades and patchy. Be better to wait til its built up and match it all.
Think it is meant to be an off white anyway, depends on how grubby you want it.

Morning mate its quit easy really simple white under coat and two wash colours i used one as a filter to get a greyer colour to the white and and then two to dirty the white up and add to the recessed ares.

Did a bit or reseach this morning ref paint schemes for the falcon and found out she as had quit a few over the years ranging form the dirty white we all know to white and blue stripes when she was known as the The Stellar Envoy during the Clone Wars.

And also black during the Yuuzhan Vong War. which Han said was for camouflage, but is also co insided with the death of chewbacca.

So i thought i would have a go at matt black see how that looked.

Some nice weathering there! I'll be watching with interest to pick up a few tips for my Falcon build.
If it is only a game then why are you keeping score?

Looking good on the cockpit! I think I'm going to hold off putting mine together until I see what the lighting kit is like - I'm tempted to add more lights in the front dash but want to see what we'll be getting first.
