Building Bandai's 1/144 Star Wars Slave One

Follow
Interstellar Modeler

This video follows my build of Bandai's 1/144 scale Slave One. Here you will see a demonstration of the salt/hairspray weathering technique as well as the alternative method of using AK Interactive's Heavy Chipping Fluid. These techniques were used to achieve the battle damaged, weathered look of the studio model by using reference pictures of the studio model as a guide. The video concludes with a final review of the completed project.

News Flash: Modeler Glenn Fox notes below that he had a bad experience when applying Mig AMMO washes to Bandai kits. I know this has been an issue with the Tamyia panel line solutions but have yet to experience anything negative myself. I used the AMMO solution on the B wing with no incident. Just be aware this may be a problem before deciding on using the Mig AMMO wash. . Hard to say why it happened to Glenn but just thought I'd share this. Thanks
