Hi All,
Here is the first part of my Studio Scale 3D printable Millennium Falcon Model - the Cockpit
(There is more to come - this is just the first drop)

Well, we filled up the 40GB of space I was given, so I updated the hosting plan to the 100GB version.

IF we fill that, I may have to look at ways to generate some revenue as the prices go up a good bit after the 100GB plan.

This is my attempt at the forward window frame of the cockpit cone.

[edit] - fixed the geometry of the inside surfaces. There was a weird non-planar face in there.

I have started modelling the pits for anyone who is interested.
Where possible I have modelled the parts based on the Kit Scans.
The goal with these is to be resin printed.

Thought I'd throw a few a few photos of the first one up (needs a bit of tidying up in places) - and the others in this chat as I get through them, generally take a few days to model each one.

If anyone spots anything majorly incorrect, let me know, I will be tweaking them along the way to match all of the photos.

Once I am happy with my final versions I will upload the STLs, as well as pre-supported ones for anyone who wants to print them.

Cheers Darrin

Here a link to my google folder for the radar dish:

Not much in at the moment but the main structure, the plan is to update when more is available.

Cheers,

Hi All,
I Realize landing gear wasn't part of the original 5 Footer model.
But with my build I wanted it to be able to support itself, so have modelled these.

Might come in handy to someone else out there.

All FDM, no supports, most split and joined with pins - I also added a Coach Bolt through the middle for extra support.

I have started working on the Landing Bay Flaps and Recess, so will add those once done, however that might be a while

Cheers
Darrin

Hi All,
Here are the STL files for my Gunner Turret.
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1...sp=sharing

I will end up uploading a lot more, so for Reference, if the File Name ends in F1, that means FDM version 1. R1 would be resin version 1 and so forth.

Version 1 models were done a few years back, Version 2 models will be any that I do from now on - as I have a lot more reference material now, so V2s should be alot better.

Unless Specified these have all printed fine on my Prusa MK3s using PLA+, without the need for any supports.

The Larger bits have hidden dovetail joins, so should just slot into each other, whereas the smaller bits just have rectangular alignment pins.

I am also working on the Turret Internals - will upload those once completed

Anyway enjoy

Thanks Darrin

Hi All,
Darrin from Christchurch, New Zealand.
First can I saw, Wow, and thanks for such a handy collection of Scans.
I started my 5' Studio Scale Falcon build a few years back now, modelling everything myself. Took a year and a bit off to write a game on Steam, and now slowly getting back into it.

My main goal is to 3d Print the bulk of it, and design with minimal supports in mind. So far I have the frame, gunners turrets and docking tubes basically done.

So thanks for the well collated and excellent collection - I'm currently working on the Pits, and these have been invaluable.

Dan Durda here, coming over from The RPF where I've had a ton of fun getting back into the modeling world after many, many years away from it since my teenage years. You know - career focus and all those dumb adult things. Got back into Star Wars with Rogue One and started out with prop replica stuff. A visit to an absolute MASTER local studio-scale modeler met via The RPF turned me on to building the BIG models. And now it's studio scale or nothing! :-)

Dan

Greetings fellow modellers,

When I joined the RPF I chose the username Junk Pilot because, of all the ships and vehicles in the Star Wars universe, I love the Millennium Falcon above all else (the AT-AT comes in a very close second though) so it's only right I carry this username over to this forum too.

I mean how can you NOT love the fastest hunk of junk in the galaxy and Han Solo will tell you he's the greatest star pilot in the galaxy so as a tribute to this smuggler, pirate, General, Hero of the Rebellion and stuck-up, half-witted, scruffy looking Nerf herder.

I've always dreamed of building my own 5ft Falcon and having seen Bjorn's build in person, followed Stuart Brown's from afar and drooled over everyone else's I realise this will remain a dream...unless I win Lotto. Who knows? Maybe one day I will.

Keep building because I love seeing all your fabulous work.
