Hey guys, Since the re release of the fine molds 1.72 falcon quite a few WIP falcons have been turning up on different modeling sites, which is great because I get huge inspiration from you guys and get to look at different methods and ways to create, build and paint scale models. Being still quite new at scale modeling (just over a year) I'm constantly finding new tips and tricks and I'd just like to thank you guys and this site (especially Scott with his videos which taught me lighting, weathering and not to be too cautious just jump in with his "if it looks like crap just do it again!!" never give up attitude 
) But seriously I really enjoy looking at everyones models. I'v never been to hot with building stuff and 3d work at school even home diy!!! so I do struggle slightly with the building part but thats not to say I dont enjoy doing it (even if I do glue my hands together). And I suuuuuuuuuuuuck at airbrushing not enough pressure, thinned paint to much, not enough, runs in panel lines, I could go on! but I think my biggest strength is the weathering thats what makes models come alive! Anyway I'll stop blabbing heres my falcon so far, cheers: http://s961.photobucket.com/albums/ae95/merseajohn/Fine%20molds172%20Falcon/
