I watch Star Wars primarily for three characters: Han, Chewie..and the Falcon. This is the most amazing rendering I have ever seen! I found myself checking the details..both on my Code 3 model and that waay cool '07 Legacy Collection piece. I have some fan made "blueprints" from the early '80s that still make me smile..even though the artists had to guess what rooms go where. A thoroughly victorious project!
Actually, you are lying because on the set they only had the outside of the falcon as a prop, and the inside of the falcon was a completely different part of the set
007DeanBond Yes,anyone who knows about the Millennium Falcon,knows there are secret compartments for Smuggling things across the galaxy. It didn't show that though. Or the rooms in the back.
So, what, no walk through to the engine compartment or the sleeping quarters???? I'm completely devastated that you did not walk us through these area's!!!! ; )
Thanks chewie211171. You're correct, the Falcon was steered star trek style in A New Hope, with buttons and switches only. But when they rebuilt the cockpit for Empire and Jedi, they added a steering yoke in both Han and Chewie's position.
I might point out: The orientation of seats vs. guns is 180 degrees off: when they were firing the guns, the cannons were supported from "beneath" as opposed to suspended from "above" (orientation in quotes since top/bottom, up/down, below/above are concepts relative to either prevalent perspective or centre of gravity).
Where is the elevator to the top hatch? Remember when Lando Calrisian "Billy Dee Williams" rode that narrow elevator hatch to go save Luke,in The Empire Strikes back? This happened when Luke chose to take a long drop to escape Vader after he cut Luke's right hand off. I believe Vader thought he was dead. But then,when the Millennium Falcon flew across the Super Star Destroyer's Bridge Window , Vader was standing there and he sensed Luke's Life Force again. "Luke". -"Father?" "Son...come with me." "Ben...why didn't you tell me?" Once the Falcon went into Hyperspace, Vader walked away from the Bridge Window... Only this time, Vader was walking was a bit slower,almost like he was experiencing a feeling of depression. Even the Officers on Deck 1,and 2 could see something different in Vader., as he left the bridge. None of them spoke out of line, but all of them were thinking, "Lord Vader isn't his usual , determined self." God,I could write a book on this subject. Vader was being too silent.
1) yes, this was all built in sketchup. 2) I made this using a little of both: I found some blueprints of the original movie sets, and I picked up the details by watching the movie a million times (plus behind the scenes photos and sites with frame by frame screencaps)
+GhostenGamer yes, but the Kessel run is a route with many black holes. The goal is to make the route as short as possible by flying closer to the black holes. This however needs good navigational computers and a powerful ship engine to get that close. Thus Solo wasn't really referencing the falcons speed, but the very good navigational control which allowed him to take a shorter (yet riskier) route.
It wasn't a fan theory. It came from several of the Star Wars books written in the 90's. (I didn't like this much back then, but the admittedly weird way they explained it has grown on me as I took physics in college.) The Maw was a smuggler run near a supergroup of galaxies and black holes. To go anywhere near the event horizons was dangerous, because there's no sign that says, "Event horizons here." Skimming too close would be worse than a quick death. Dying in a black hole takes years, as every black hole distorts time. Current astrophysics theories predict you'd be able to watch time go in reverse for a few million years (time is distorted, so you wouldn't experience time normally, and may even live out those million years watching shit run in reverse). Then fracturization breaks your bones, and then spaghettification pretty much squeezes the body like Play-Dough through a Fun Factory press, into a thin noodle. By then, a person would die, and that would be a relief. Black holes are a terrible way to die, even if one of the predictions are accurate. From what George Lucas said in the distant past, he knew a parsec was a unit of distance, not time. George Lucas wanted Han to say this, to gauge whether or not Obi Wan and Luke would notice. He was testing how gullible they were, so he'd know if he could charge them more for the ride off Tatooine. At least that's what George Lucas has said in documentaries as far back as 1977-78. There's a REALLY old documentary hosted by C3PO and R2. If you can find it, it's pretty funny. Try a public library with an old video tape collection.
Xtraflo, this what I think as well. The main hold we see in the movies is all the cargo space the Falcon has (and all Han needs) in my opinion. I don't think she's meant to haul large quantites of goods like a normal freighter; she's been modified by Solo to smuggle small high-value shipments quickly. As a side note, the interior seen in my video is based exclusively on the movie sets, so it wouldn't include any theoretical extra space (or bathrooms, for those who keep asking about them)
@IWDTC the idea is that the artificial gravity changes direction inside the gun turrets, so that they seem to be sitting up in chairs that are actually perpendicular to the floor in the rest of the interior.
thanks folks! rickymontero: I agree about the pauses, future versions will have a smooth camera path. I will be using a program for rendering, once all the details are complete. At the moment I've identified 26 areas that need serious attention in the interior alone, so who knows when that will be. if you know of a reliable rendering engine for sketchup, which can handle soft shadows, and multiple light sources (and I've tried a few that just don't cut it) I'm all ears.
Those boxes pre-date companion cubes by more than 30 years. The art department on A New Hope used a lot of scrap parts from the aviation industry to dress the docking bay 94 set. But I'm not sure what the boxes actually are.
@Chrisdrumz a full tour might happen after I get all the movie details in place. that's my priority, and it's a lot of work. either way, the more detail I copy, the more authentic any artistic license I take will seem.
You are correct, and I've been wondering if anyone would catch that. The "off" orientation of the gun turrets is due to the orientation of the ladder in the access tube. In order for it to be against the wall, the way it appears in the movies, the guns have to face the wrong direction entirely. In fact it's not quite 180, they're backwards and off to the port side of the Falcon. This was another design oversight by the movie crew, caused by different people working on the interior and exterior.
ascarifx if you're watching on a phone (iPhone for instance I can tell you what the directions are as that's what I'm using) you can click the gear in the top right, and click watch in cardboard assuming you have one of those cheap virtual reality cardboard things. The video wasn't completely designed for it so there's not really like legitimate super cool head tracking like most vrs have, but it's still cool to see in the cardboard, and to imagine what a game of the future is gonna be like where you're walking around your very own falcon in virtual fockin reality!!!!!!!! If you don't have te cardboard you can still click watch in cardboard, and you can aim the phone forward and click "recenter" so it aligns with your line of sight, and then you can cross your eyes a certain way and relax them, to do what I like to call the poor man's VR. It will give you a 3D image but it's not nearly as cool as using a virtual reality device like the cardboard thing or better. The design and technology of you wanna call it that; behind those cardboard things, is essentially doing what the crossing your eyes thing does. Real videos that were made for vr though are a lot more immersive and have head tracking, so you can move your head around, and the phone/glasses a long with it, giving you the illusion that you are really there looking around- changing which things you wanna look at. Porno isn't bad LOL I finally know now what it looks like to have some super hot beeeotch's ass in front of me!
@einherje71 The movie set of the full scale exterior of the Falcon is about 85.5 feet, or 26.06m, long. Because my interiors and exteriors are replicas of those sets, my exterior is that size. However, the interior would never fit inside the ship if it was really that size, which is why theoretical figures, such as 40m, are sometimes given.
So a long time ago in a galaxy far far away people didn't poop.... Where exactly is the bathroom at you gotta swing by like a space gas station or something
thanks Adamlinks, I have toyed around with importing it to a UDK engine, but that might be a while in the works since I'm still adding detail all the time. Keep an eye out though.
finfito, What a pleasure to discover your SketchUp work and of course, your passion for using it with Star Wars. Nice use of scenes in SU, it might be good to eliminate the scene transitions in the animation (controlled in the animation settings in SketchUP). Good work.
@devi1sdoz3n Since I built both sets from blueprints used in the production of Star Wars, they'd never fit, as you said. So, my solution was to use a bit of movie magic. When the camera moves up the ramp, the interior appears and the exterior disappears.
Good graphics! Just never understood the dimensions of the gun turrets. On the top one you climb up to it and looks like you lay down and fire with the guns above you? In a New Hope, Luke and Han are firing with guns out front and sitting up straight? Kinda confusing....
Dude Ster please you mean. At least you said thanks, but demanding someone to do something like this is pretty rude. But at least you said thanks so perhaps I'll let this slide. Would be worse to see one of those comments that just says "DO _______________!" (Ebon hawk for instance- I personally wouldn't mind seeing that one.) it's just like, they're not even acknowledging this one, they're immediately into the next- not grateful or thankful at all, just consuming **NOM NOM NOM!!!** ready to consume more! Jesus people are rude. You're not too bad though I can see you simply are requesting it lol
It looks like you missed two compartments, based on your animation when you go into the ship there was something to the left, and there was another room beyond the room where the hologram game is.
I'm sure the walk through design on this is accurate. My thought is this. Most of the Cargo space has been used up by the Hyperdrive. Supposedly, the the Hyperdrive engine is aftermarket, and put in by one of the previous owners. Plus,, I'm sure Han added a little to the engine as well - again, taking up most of the Cargo space.
I watch Star Wars primarily for three characters: Han, Chewie..and the Falcon. This is the most amazing rendering I have ever seen! I found myself checking the details..both on my Code 3 model and that waay cool '07 Legacy Collection piece. I have some fan made "blueprints" from the early '80s that still make me smile..even though the artists had to guess what rooms go where. A thoroughly victorious project!
Thanks for showing us around.
It's a good thing no one was trying to stop the ship or blast us.
You know I've been on the real falcon at the real set
Haha u fat nerd jk love u have my kids;)
Actually, you are lying because on the set they only had the outside of the falcon as a prop, and the inside of the falcon was a completely different part of the set
Why do I expect Peter Griffin to walk in at any moment?
That's hilarious, dude!
because he is having a second go at BINGO !!
for some reason I was thinking the same thing
He didn't show the couch
great kid don't get penisy!
Normal teenagers:
"I want a Cadillac!"
"I want a Jeep!"
"I want a Convertible!"
Me:
"I WANT THE MILLENNIUM FALCON!!!!!!!"
BarracudaProd1234 2013!?!? that’s a while ago
It is kind of luxurious but I wish they show the bedrooms and bathrooms that it might have
Half the ship
007DeanBond Yes,anyone who knows about the Millennium Falcon,knows there are secret compartments for
Smuggling things across the galaxy. It didn't show that though. Or the rooms in the back.
Don't worry, they're still flying half a ship
Not just my favorite ship, but one of my favorite things ever!
There is a toilet in the falcon and btw it is called a refresher!
No it is not called the "Refresher" the entire full bathroom is called the Refresher instead of being called a bathroom.
So, what, no walk through to the engine compartment or the sleeping quarters???? I'm completely devastated that you did not walk us through these area's!!!! ; )
+Wakeman Edwards I've always wanted to know what the "bathroom/toilet" looks like.
StuckInnerRut Not after Chewie goes No.2 you don't!
Just walked us through the areas seen in the movies, thats all!
Glad to see you kept the fuzzy dice for the Falcon's cockpit (which really was in the original movie).
where is the bathroom,and sleeping/med bed quarters?
in space
At the back of the ship, you can see them on a Star Wars ships cross section book, what we see on the video is only what we see in the movie from 1977
Thanks chewie211171. You're correct, the Falcon was steered star trek style in A New Hope, with buttons and switches only. But when they rebuilt the cockpit for Empire and Jedi, they added a steering yoke in both Han and Chewie's position.
I love it! I almost got vertigo in the top turret. Great work!
I saved this to my favorites back in 2011 and am now watching in 2018 after seeing Solo Star Wars Story .....mind blown !
I might point out: The orientation of seats vs. guns is 180 degrees off: when they were firing the guns, the cannons were supported from "beneath" as opposed to suspended from "above" (orientation in quotes since top/bottom, up/down, below/above are concepts relative to either prevalent perspective or centre of gravity).
Why didn't you go through the cargo and engine areas?
Where is the elevator to the top hatch? Remember when Lando Calrisian
"Billy Dee Williams" rode that narrow elevator hatch to go save Luke,in The Empire Strikes back? This
happened when Luke chose to take a long drop to escape Vader after he cut Luke's right
hand off. I believe Vader thought he was dead. But then,when the Millennium Falcon flew across the
Super Star Destroyer's Bridge Window , Vader was standing there and he sensed Luke's Life Force
again. "Luke". -"Father?" "Son...come with me." "Ben...why didn't you tell me?"
Once the Falcon went into Hyperspace, Vader walked away from the Bridge Window...
Only this time, Vader was walking was a bit slower,almost like he was experiencing a feeling
of depression. Even the Officers on Deck 1,and 2 could see something different in Vader.,
as he left the bridge. None of them spoke out of line, but all of them were thinking, "Lord Vader
isn't his usual , determined self." God,I could write a book on this subject. Vader was being too
silent.
Wow, such amazing graphics
what amazing detail and i know how hard sketchup can be at times
I've been wondering about that for bloody years!!
1) yes, this was all built in sketchup.
2) I made this using a little of both: I found some blueprints of the original movie sets, and I picked up the details by watching the movie a million times (plus behind the scenes photos and sites with frame by frame screencaps)
The way they sit on the fund never sat right with me this cleared it up
This bucket of bolts is never gonna get us past that blockade!
there it is!... Did you guys know she's the only ship to make the Kessel run in under 12 parsecs? a true ship of dreams.
+DOODER1091 isn't a parsecs a unit of distance not time?
+GhostenGamer yes, but the Kessel run is a route with many black holes.
The goal is to make the route as short as possible by flying closer to the black holes. This however needs good navigational computers and a powerful ship engine to get that close.
Thus Solo wasn't really referencing the falcons speed, but the very good navigational control which allowed him to take a shorter (yet riskier) route.

where is the toilet?
I like the dice in the cockpit. Nice touch.
thank you for finally putting my mind at ease, for I now understand what in the blazes was going on with the gun bays.
You just made this little boy's (28) dream come true. Thanks! I felt like I was really there!
Love the dice in the cockpit
wow, you have put alot of effort into this and it shows. Well done!
This is really, really cool. Great job!
This is my childhood dream come true as well. Glad to share it with others!
Now this is a WALKthrough
where are the crew cabins?
This is actually pretty cool.
Xtraflo, this what I think as well. The main hold we see in the movies is all the cargo space the Falcon has (and all Han needs) in my opinion.

OMG is that scatchup? How long did it take you to build?
Very very nice work. Excellent !

I was expecting the Grady twins to show up in the corridor around one of the corners!
I didn't miss them: everything that you see here is based on the movie sets, which did not include any of those features.
It is amazing! I totally loved the walkthrough specially since I recently bought a lego and wanted to compare the details! Amazing piece of work!
Those boxes pre-date companion cubes by more than 30 years. The art department on A New Hope used a lot of scrap parts from the aviation industry to dress the docking bay 94 set. But I'm not sure what the boxes actually are.

🚀 Looking back at this in 2018 it looks like the prototype 3d modeling for one of the EA Battlefront's maps!

This is totally awesome Dude! You understand. Can't wait to see the rest of it. Brilliant work :-)
2:00 _Great, kid, don't get cocky!_
For all people asking about areas not shown.... just google "millennium falcon" and check images. you will find a floor plan. :)
Fantastic - thank you for this
Very cool! What about the sick bay area? is it all the way in the back? I noticed the tour did not go back there, Is there more on another video?
Thanks to last jedi, this is close as I am getting to this movie.
"Chewie!...get us outta here!"
The 94 on the wall was really there in the movie set. A nice, and subtle, piece of design work, I think.
yes, actually I did. might post walkthroughs of that some day too. Keep an eye out.
So a long time ago in a galaxy far far away people didn't poop.... Where exactly is the bathroom at you gotta swing by like a space gas station or something
It's actually in there...lol.
If you look at the blueprints, you'll see it in the main bunk.
There is a "refresher" in the falcon
Joseph Atnip That's the real reason Han made the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs!
what was at the bottom of the ladder?
Top 3 Ships of Sci FI
3) The BattleStar: Galactica
2) Firefly Class Ship: Serenity
1) The Millennium Falcon
thanks Adamlinks, I have toyed around with importing it to a UDK engine, but that might be a while in the works since I'm still adding detail all the time. Keep an eye out though.
☝🏽🤔 NICE AUXILIARY VIEW WALKTHROUGH! GREAT JOB 👍🏽
Looks Amazing mate ;) Great work :)
Is this the Shining in the future?
finfito, What a pleasure to discover your SketchUp work and of course, your passion for using it with Star Wars. Nice use of scenes in SU, it might be good to eliminate the scene transitions in the animation (controlled in the animation settings in SketchUP). Good work.
Very impressive, I am sure that was a lot of work.
No, you're not asking a lot. All you need now is a wookie and you'll have the complete set.
I quite like this, kind of reminds me of the game XIII. Shame there was no sound and only showed the areas only seen in the movies though.
It's bigger on the inside! The 2 gunner ports need more space to exit into, for instance!
The dice were a nice touch ;-)
I can see the falcon in 2000AD. Move that falcon perp!
Great work! what was this built in?
@devi1sdoz3n Since I built both sets from blueprints used in the production of Star Wars, they'd never fit, as you said. So, my solution was to use a bit of movie magic. When the camera moves up the ramp, the interior appears and the exterior disappears.
Awful lot of work gone into this - amazing, thank you for sharing.
00nick7, check out newer versions of this video on my channel, fixed the pauses and added tons of new detail.
Good graphics! Just never understood the dimensions of the gun turrets. On the top one you climb up to it and looks like you lay down and fire with the guns above you? In a New Hope, Luke and Han are firing with guns out front and sitting up straight? Kinda confusing....
@finfito /have your tried UDK...? There is a way to import sketchup models into it using 3dmax as the go-between program..
nostalgia
Wow! How many Time did YOU do that?? Great Job👏🏼
Awesome, really awesome!
is this google sketch-up?
Was TK421 taking this video when he should have been at his post?
pure awesomeness - thank you finfito !! :-D Now do the Jedi Academy!
Dude Ster please you mean. At least you said thanks, but demanding someone to do something like this is pretty rude. But at least you said thanks so perhaps I'll let this slide. Would be worse to see one of those comments that just says "DO _______________!" (Ebon hawk for instance- I personally wouldn't mind seeing that one.) it's just like, they're not even acknowledging this one, they're immediately into the next- not grateful or thankful at all, just consuming **NOM NOM NOM!!!** ready to consume more! Jesus people are rude. You're not too bad though I can see you simply are requesting it lol
That's amazing man... what program did you use to model the millennium falcon in 3D? and how did you get it so accurate
ok but where does the other hallway go to? Is it just a circle?
"What a piece of Junk!" ;-)
My favorite ship in star wars
Awesome. How long do you think this ship is? MF is sometimes around 25 m. long and other times almost 40 m.
WOW! this is like the first class cabin on a united jet
@v8matey interesting, I may have to look into this. I do actually have 3dsmax, but I've never had the time to learn it.
Yes I wonder the same thing... Accurate work though, it really looks this way.
Right down to the dice!
So, do people use airlock to eject their body waste?
is there a name for those boxes at 0:15? i've always wondered.
lol
its called a companion cube from portal
BarryDennen12 The Orgasmatron!
It looks like you missed two compartments, based on your animation when you go into the ship there was something to the left, and there was another room beyond the room where the hologram game is.
I'm sure the walk through design on this is accurate.
My thought is this. Most of the Cargo space has been used up by the Hyperdrive. Supposedly, the the Hyperdrive engine is aftermarket, and put in by one of the previous owners. Plus,, I'm sure Han added a little to the engine as well - again, taking up most of the Cargo space.
UNDERRATED ANIMATION
I found the dice at the cockpit
Lol
Very cool my friend!! You indeed have talent. I look forward to future postings, you definately have an eye for detail!! Thanks!!
@15seconds I think I spotted a cube from Portal ?
