  • In this video, I cover the assembly of the cockpit, photo etch for the cockpit and painting of the cockpit. I do not complete the cockpit in this video due to time, but a majority of it is done.

    Your ingenuity is astounding!! Love how you are able to come up with solutions that might not readily be the "go-to". You give your models depth and a personal touch of excellence. Thanks for the play-by-play commentary into your creative process. Enjoy learning how you approach challenges to achieve movie model accuracy.

    Hello, I’m assembling the Y Wing starfighter Bandai 1/72, and you inspire me for the paint process. The iluminaron an the other fantastic details, are out of my league. Your work is fantastic, thanks for sharing

    Fantastic detail, the placing the photo etch and then
    spraying undercoat to see where to cut is a great idea. Always been an issue
    for me knowing were to do the cut-outs, this idea will really help. Thank you.

    Wow Christopher, your work is brilliant as always. I finishing up the Y-wing as a present for my son, and although I've no idea how to light the thing, your videos have inspired my builds. The guitar strings was a stroke of genius, an idea I personally used and it added that small detail to push it to another level. Thank you for your inspiration.

    Great job dude, really like what you did to this. Not sure I could do that. I'm going to build the Bandai 1/72 X-Wing. Although, I also have the old AMT X-Wing whih would easily allow lighting.

  • @MrPhife333

    Gawd, but I love your attention to detail. If you have it, I'd love to see a video of how you painted the pilot!

    • @modelsbychris
      @modelsbychris  3 роки тому

      Only have the little bit of painting the pilot seen in part I. It's very difficult to shoot on video while doing that tiny detail. I have to get in there to close and it blocks the camera

    the photo at 8 minute mark left side looks like snow speeder from Hoth. excellent build, love the lights. you have far more patience than I have.

    • @modelsbychris
      @modelsbychris  6 років тому +1

      Nope, it's the X-Wing. Those are screen grabs I did from ESB. A couple from when he jumped in and left Hoth, then the others from on Dagobah.

    • @bobc4d
      @bobc4d 6 років тому

      ah, it was the snow and gloves which made me think that.

    Another great video. I was wondering, where did you/ do you find such great reference pictures? Could you possibly share them? Thank you for any help in advance.

    • @modelsbychris
      @modelsbychris  5 років тому +2

      In particular, for the x-wing cockpit, they're just screen grabs I did from freezing the blu-ray of the movie on a shot that shows it cleanly.
