Slave I Printer Friendly Version   By DUKEDREAL - Dec. 31, 1969 Medium Entries Slave I Dimensions: 4 inches tall by 6 inches long by 6 inches wide Molds Used: 4" Circular Tower Mold #52, Turret Mold #61, Station Builder Mold #300, Starship Wall Mold #301, Cargo Bay Accessory Mold #302, Med Lab Accessory Mold #303 Construction: The ship is made of pieces of the station builder mold pinned and glued together so as not to need “external” supports to hold it all together. The rounded parts of the ship were cast from the station builder mold and then sanded down with an orbital hand held sander. The fine grain of the plaster has ruined the sander! The 4” tower walls were used for the main body of the ship and then sanded down to remove all texture. The command chairs are from some hobby store online. The only part that is not from a mold are the struts holding the landing pads on. For these ¼ round wooden dowels were used. The guns are also from Games Workshop from the Tau tank, but I added bits of plastic rods to add extra uniqueness to them. The guns also rotate! Fluff: Slave I, first piloted by Jango Fett then his son/clone Bobba. The ship has now found its way into the hands of Bobba’s biological son Janko Fett.   6 Ratings     12345      Public Comments Please log in to post a comment    Created  Comment  Aug. 25, 2006, 05:06AM  By: ABAROTH Good looking ship. Great 'tatty' paint job highlighting all the action it's seen. Reality is a nice place to visit, but you wouldn't want to live there ;-)  Aug. 24, 2006, 08:55PM  By: MALARKEY This menacing weapon looks like it's seen it's share of battle... nicely done!  Aug. 17, 2006, 03:21PM  By: DNDOPMAN Even though I don't dig the space so much I REALLY liked this piece alot. I think this was my favorite of all your entries this year. I love the weathered look you managed to achieve on this piece. Excellent work on this one.
