Fine Molds Slave 1
Posted by Anonymous on Thursday, December 1, 2005 11:21 PM

Here are some final photos of my Fine Molds Slave 1. Everything is box stock except the cockpit which I scratchbuilt to look more like what I saw in the Star Wars Chronicles book. I even made a little periscope for Boba. I also closed the small gun doors near the cockpit (didn't see these open in ESB). I also opened the gun barrels on the main guns. Without any further ado...

Looks good, about how big is this kit? I did an ertl one a couple years ago it came out allright, I tried the salt weathering approach but it left a white film that wouldn't go away so I used all the same steps for the salt weathering but used sand instead.

I used liquid mask flicked on with toothbrush bristles instead of salt. The kit is 1/72nd... it fits together like a dream... I highly recommend it. It is light years better than the AMT/ERTL kit, IMHO... but it does cost twice as much!
