Wow!! She turned out great!!! Are you still doing the base then? And for some reason...I've not been getting updates!!!

Thanks Nick, yup still doing the base. Here's the underneath of the ship and the base dry fitted:

[JohnSimmons]

Cheers bud ;D

 

[Quaralane]

Gorgeous.
And that stand is perfect for this kit

 

[JohnSimmons]

Thanks Q, yeah the stand looks good once the starfighter's on it. I thought it looked a little odd at first.

Hey guys here's the final pics. Before I post the photos I'd like to again thank HLJ for supplying the kit and SMA for giving me the chance to do the review. I seriously recommend picking one of these up it's been a lot of fun:

So here's what I wanted to do on the base, you can see from this screen grab that the flooring has lights and black and grey flooring.

So rather than keeping it a boring grey colour I wanted to represent what's seen on film:

And here's a side shot complete with pilot:

Thanks for all the comments and for looking guys.

[ScaleModelMadman]

Awesome!

First time ive looked in since you started mj and WOW thats Epic, outstanding finish, love the base

 

[nicholassagan]

Hot damn MJ!! Nice finish!

 

[Jaitea]

Beautiful job, the display doesn't distract your attention from the ship.

I was going to suggest maybe the floor had a bit of a sheen... Like porcelain or marble, but I think what you decided is best....there's enough reflections in the fighter

The lights add the final touch, it looks like she's ready to take off

*EDIT* I posted that last post on my iPod, now seeing those images on a laptop there is a soft sheen on the floor, looks luvly!!
