Let's Build Boba Fett's Starfighter from MPC models in 1:70 Scale. Screen Accurate Build | Ep 12
Join me today as I restart the paint job on the aft of the ship. I started painting this model way back at the very beginning and hadn't touched this part in a long time. Upon inspection, I determine that it is time to repaint the part and then attempt to create a custom reverse mask for the kit. Will the force be with me? Lets see!

It’s unfortunate that you had to strip the paint off, however this new paint job looks great. For the interior I think you need to decide if it’s worth the extra work for what you see. If the quality of the interior brings down the look of the entire kit, then I would recommend tinting it canopy so you can’t see inside. Looking good, keep it up.
Thank you, Ken! And thank you for the advice. I am of the mind to blank out the cockpit as well. I just feel it takes away from the realism, but I am going to try to put it together first to see how the rough look will be.
Great Job Jordan. For us newbies I would have liked to know how to correct painting screw ups, and your process of removing the paint.
I've been thinking about creating a tutorial for that as it is the one thing I am very good at. Lol. I can put one of those together for this weekend! As for being able to see what I am doing, check out my Defiant build series. I think its episode 7 or 8 where I have to remove the paint, and I do so on camera.
@@Aligning_The_Stars Awesome Thank you.
Great work Jordan, next time I want to see you beating off your paint.
I can show you anytime my friend! LOLOL... wait....
I've seen that interior built and it looks fairly good. It's not the greatest but it's not too bad.
I'm likely to assemble part of it to see how it all fits together. I'm still leaning towards doing the interior as I want to have the choice which way it is positioned. Thanks for the advice!
