great video. about to start a LAAT project this week. really cool to see how you got the cockpit painted up. will be checking the other video soon - your humbleness ensured another subscriber!
I'm so glad you found it useful to watch! And thanks so much for your kind words, and for watching, subbing, and commenting. Enjoy the build - it's a great kit!
What a great job. I love Sorastro's work and it was great to see that you learn from him too. I am getting ready to paint this myself and love your take on it.
Thanks so much! I love Mark's work. I never miss his videos when they comes out. Have fun with your build. Thank you for the kind words, and for watching and commenting!
Excellent content as always Jon. Thank you for the continued effort you put into these wonderful videos. The weathering and chipping is perfect. I have a large kit that I will be using some of these techniques on and this has gotten me more excited to start, so thanks for that! Cheers brother!
Fantastic video, honestly awesome and very informative content! I wish I'd watched this before assembling the interior a few days ago. I can get some tips from your exterior video at least.
Glad you enjoyed it! Hopefully the other videos in the series can give you some ideas to consider. It's a great kit - have fun with it! Thanks so much for watching and commenting. Happy day to you friend!
You are doing a great job on your star wars model kit I am learning a hole lot from your video am thinking of getting this model kit keep up the great work happy modeling have a nice day be safe
Thank you so very much for such an encouraging comment! I am always happy to know the videos are helpful. Thanks for watching and commenting - happy day to you!
Thank you so much! I think you'd really enjoy them. They quite fun, and there's loads of choices. Thanks for your continued support of the channel - I am grateful!
Thanks Jon. I’ve recently discovered your channel and will be working my way through. Some great stuff here. I must be one of those with too much time on my hands as I used enamels haha. Can’t wait for the next one. Cheers, Iain
Thanks so much! I got a nice chuckle that you caught that reference! ;) Have fun with your project. Thanks for watching and commenting! Please do subscribe. 😊
I spent a lot of time on the interior of my Imperial version, only to realize once I put it together that you can't see hardly any of it because of the black flight suits and grey color scheme. I can't really even see the helmet decals. Oh well, it's like painting the inside of a rhino for 40k, I know it's there so I guess that's what counts lol.
That's part of the reason I chose to have Clone Troopers in it. That offered a little more contrast. But it is a fun build. It definitely offers some experience points if nothing else. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Thanks for your kind words. This was back before I started doing the lists of colors. It just takes a lot of time to go back through and add them in, as it's been quite a while since I built it. I do think I mentioned them though, so as you watch you can note what's being used. Thanks again for watching and commenting!
How do you paint your clone troopers? I saw that you said you use cold white and sky grey but I haven't been able to find those. What brand are they? Thanks!
Those are Vallejo colors, but the brand and name really isn't the key. Using a very light gray as the base, and then a slightly off white to build up from there, and optional pure white for some highlights is the key. I hope that helps! Thanks for watching and commenting. 😊

Hey great job, about to start this myself.
I don't suppose you could put up a list of the colours you used please?
Thanks for your kind words.
