#TIL #HoyAprendí que la #TantiveIV (la nave en la que Leia primera de Alderaan escapa de #Scarif, aunque sea sólo temporalmente) era una #Corbeta de clase CR90.

Y ahora quiero volver a ver #RogueOne, IMHO, con mucho la mejor película del universo de #StarWars

Bandai Blockade Runner progress, almost done weathering and dirtying up with washes and pastels.

Basically adding new layers of subtle and not so subtle. Looking a bit more worn that at the beginning of A New Hope but hopefully not the dreaded over weathered

More progress, base painting and panelling just about done. Red parts suitably distressed with a toothpick, almost ready for washes and final weathering with pastels and maybe oils

Blockade Runner panel progress. Still a few to colour in, and started scraping back the red to match the studio model.
It's funny, every build of this I've looked at online the builder has also chosen to paint the markings rather than use the stickers

#starwars #Bandai #BlockadeRunner #TantiveIV

I'm handpainting all the markings because while this is Bandai and generally awesome, it's also aimed at entry level or casual builders, and the markings are provided as self adhesive stickers rather than waterslide decals, which I don't trust long term, especially over curves.
I've also discovered an awesome continuity detail on the underside - the bays for the escape pods like the one that R2D2 and C3PO get to Tattooine in, with some of them missing.

I was all like "yeah a snap together blockade runner, it will be easy, paint it white, job done", then I made the mistake of looking at the studio model and it's many different coloured panels for reference lol

Full credit to the original ILM kitbashers though, because this kind of detail is baked in worldbuilding that doesn't require exposition.

Haven't been on line as much in the last couple of weeks for off line reasons, but here is something I've been working on between more complicated builds.
Bandai snap together model of Princess Leia's Blockade Runner (aka the Tantive IV) in 1/1000 scale.
Black based to force some shadow effect on the thin white topcoat

Xbox Game Pass Initial Thoughts — HeadphonesNeil Reviews

Summary - I got the $1 promo offer for Xbox Game Pass for 1 month so I redeemed it to see how it works and compares to Google Stadia. I tested the service with Star Wars Battlefront II and Lego Star Wars The Skywalker Saga Blog Podcast

Some of the Lego SW posters individually in slightly bigger a size. The ones I like best of the lot.

Looking at them now, I think I could do one more. There is a Lego model I have that hasn't made the cut yet. TBC.
