Rob's Bandai 1/72 Perfect Grade Millennium Falcon Model Kit Build
มุมมอง 70K4 ปีที่แล้ว
This is my Build up of the Bandai 1/72 Perfect Grade Millennium Falcon Model Kit. This is an Ep 4.5 version. Some upgrades for lighting the outside of the hull transitioning from Episode 4 to Episode 5.
That is the best Falcon model I have ever seen. Wow!
Thank you so much Rob for the kind words. It really means a lot to us. Thank you for making this video and showing examples of other kits comparing the quality people can get with our kits. We always try to do the best we can and we will work our butts off if something isn't right. - Justin
You guys are doing great, the kits are awesome. In all honesty, you could make a hell of a lot more mistakes, and still outclass your competitors. I had to actually search, nitpick, and be over critical to find exactly 1 issue on the ESB AT-ST. That was already corrected before it got to me. If I hadn't noticed the tool marks, seriously, then I would never had known. I think I had mentioned that your kits are basically assembly, not building. They are that good. So don't thank me, Thank you! I can think of one way for you guys to improve though.... Let me make the list of next models! :P #B-wing #Sandcrawler! Keep up the awesome work. Seriously appreciated. I wish people understood the quality difference at the same exact cost of other garage kit producers.
@@robbuildsstuff.9332 appreciate it again man. :) Def want to make both the B Wing and Sandcrawler! Some of my favorites.
Я много пересмотрел, это лучшая работа. Отлично!
I can smell that yellow resin from here
Excellent tutorial! What size spring clamps did you use?
Amazing
great work
Hi Rob, I'm really impressed with the build, nice subtle use of the weathering, I've seen some that look like they've been on fire! I managed to buy the kit six months ago in Australia at $500 AUD ($800 RRP AUD) then bought the 308 Bits cockpit from Shapeways, the Flacon 3D Parts Light and Sound kit with Landing Lights, plus lots of fibre optic filament and LEDs for the Caution lights. I noticed in your video you didn't show the Caution Lights fitted, did you not fit them? I haven't started the build yet, I'm still considering the best way to drill holes for the Landing (LED) and Caution (fibre optic) lights, disappointingly they did not come with instructions or tips and my online searches have not shown precise locations. The problem is outside I might drill into detail and inside I might drill into a structural part, very nerve-wracking. I found some clues on lighting at sites.google.com/site/3dsfinfo/part-iii-the-lighting but as I said, knowing the exact spot to drill is tricky. Cheers, great build mate!
Incredible work! The little details that you put into it just make it a cut above. That light in the rear left that is flickering like it's burning out is brilliant.
You are a true artist sir!!!! WOW!!!
epic modelling skillS Rob!. Do you have any detailed pics of the fiber and Led work behind the cockpit lighting you are willing to share?, thanks in advance.
Where can I get that electrónicas partes? For example the motores for the turbinas???
I’m torn about this video. I can’t decide which is better: The first part of the build, or the second part of the reveal! Phenomenal work Sir! (We all feel that pain of cleaning up resin kits!)
Your skill with lights, Amazing. Very nice. Great quality. Randy should be very happy with your success. Thanks for sharing all this.
I'm glad you did this. The detail is incredable at 42 inches. Yet with the Millennium Falcon anchored to the back during one movie, this much detail seams to be lacking on screen. So, did Randy adlib some? Do we really mind? As I go larger with foam I hope too avoid too much detail. Its going too hang from an A-frame ceiling. Down on the floor looking up 10 to 15 feet - the strain alone might make everybody forget most of the detail. Hehe
Love the shapeways Tie Fighters.
Honestly this kit was horribly made, the fact you could fix it is amazing.
MPC M.F. is often criticised by amatures whom are the majority. While seasoned builders enjoy the challenges without pause. Scalemates slipped one onto the market. It was a hit. Revell & Bandai copied it. ( leaving the figures out 🤬 ) & most of us real fans missed out. Now their all ASTRONOMICALLY PRICED by the greedy sons*****es. The price of Resim kits are insane. Yet, so is the price of resin since oil inflation by the GREEDY oil companies looking too recoop their loses from lost oil platforms, sunken oil tankers, & pirates around the world. Its all gottn so crazy. Resin melts near heat. So, unless your a polar bear in your living space - its best too avoid Resin kits. A garage is a great place to store & build Resin kits. I like that he shared this build. It helos me grasp sizes. And Revell, Bandai, AMT will never bother making Big one.
@@gonsolop2429 call me whenever you like, but a person should have pride in their craft. What I saw, was someone who didn't care about the quality of their work. If you buy a car, you expect it to work. Not to have to immediately replace a cracked engine block, with your own money. I would never sell faulty work. The quality of your work is your quality as a person.
@11:44 ...DAaa DAaa DAAAAAA!!😂
ILM never used panel line washes… why do it❓🤷🏻♂️
Totally awesome, Rob.
Crazy you make such a lot of details…. I have the same Star destroyer since a few years but I m scaried about this project
I wish I had the space for this!
Fearsome abilities and utterly gorgeous work...
Awesome
Awesome job 👍
Hey Rob, do you take on commissions jobs?
Hey Rob would you happen to have the directions for the kit. I bought one and I have yet to receive the link for the instructions download. I know Randy has a lot of things going on so I am really loathe to bother him. Any help with this would be appreciated..
Hi mate Where did you get the full cockpit Extended one that goes beyond the cockpit door
I haven't read any other comment, because I didn't want to be influenced by the opinions. The only improvement I would say is with your camera, that focus didn't do this beauty any favors! After doing just a few models I gladly admit I'm still a novice (level 2), so seeing the work you did on this model of my favorite ship was like getting a chance to go back to the 70's and witness ILM doing their thing. Just the work you had to do to made all the parts align and filling in light gaps is a testament to your superb ability and patience. I just recently saw a video of someone who commissioned an 8'ft studio scale version of the Avenger and I'm pretty sure more than one person worked on that , so to see all the work you put into this is inspiring. I loved that you properly economical with the amount of window lights and their intensity, because I've seen many need to light their ships up brighter than the Sun! To each his own, but yours has the proper appearance of what I saw on the screen. I could continue on and on with my praise, but I will just end with "BRAVO"! your labors were all worth it.
impresionante!!! te felicito
Reminds me of when I built my Avenger. I used roughly 1500' of fibre optics on mine. She is the pride of my model collection. My only complaint is for how much money the kit cost's; I wish better attention to detail was paid. I had a lot of parts that did not fit! It's always fun when someone walks up to it and says "holy crap that's huge". Then you turn the lights on and they just sit and stare at it. Great job!
Wow...!
hats off to your patience - placing all those fiber optics and all the work you had done so amazing.👌👍
Awesome. My only thing is the blue engine lights should be off if the Falcon is parked in the bay.
Absolutely fantastic work... Congrats
Dam that’s a large kit. Well done mate. Looks fantastic.
Dude…. next level. Thanks for your hard work. Inspirational as hell. 😮
CLAP, CLAP, CLAP, CLAP, CLAP, CLAP, CLAP, CLAP, CLAP, CLAP, CLAP, CLAP!!!
Would you ever build another to sell?
Just bought my Falcon. Can’t wait to start.
Going to start my own build soon. Was wondering how I was going to do the lighting as the stock LEDa look pretty lackluster. This is really motivating me to really do it right! Awesome build!!!
I know you did this a while ago. But do you remember who on shapeways you got the parts from? Thanks
Wow! It looks great. It looks like what I want to do with mine. Very inspiring video. I’ve got a new goal to shoot for.
Is this Randy Cooper model ? Love your work !
Yup, this is that kit. I still totally recommend it. Just be prepared for the work.
Ilee
Amazing work.
Outstanding
The cockpit is awesome!
Hi Rob. I’ve been using your video in building my MF and have also gone down the 308 bits route. I’ve a question on how you light-blocked the main back wall. As there’s no door did you make a light box behind that piece or was there another way you achieved it? Fantastic build and a beautiful paint job. Looking forward to your blockade runner.
Damn dude....
where did you get the electronics?
