Andy Moore Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Revell's new Razor Crest from the Star Wars TV show 'The Mandalorian'. The kit is definitely a step up from some of Revell's previous Star Wars releases, featuring some excellent detailing and a full interior. It's also nice that they've made it in a standard modelling scale rather than some random one as many of their earlier SW kits were. The only significant downside with the kit is the poor surface texturing across many of the parts, including some quite visible tooling marks in places. Much of that can be removed with a sanding stick and a little effort, but I'd have prefered it not to be there in the first place. Despite that, the kit builds up well and has excellent fit for the most part. A few areas can benefit from a little extra detailing and enhancement, but the end result is an accurate and fairy imposing replica of the Crest, especially if you can stand it next to it's natural stablemate - Slave 1. The full build can be found here Thanks for looking Andy 47 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M_Sinclair Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 You really have a way of nailing the look and feel of ships (and droids) in the Star Wars universe. Those steaks down the sides of the engine are just ~chef's kiss~ wonderful. Bravo Andy. -matt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yg Models Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 (edited) 28 minutes ago, Andy Moore said: Revell kit is approximately 33.5cm long my bandai ver only 1/3 length of yours, maybe 1/200 scale? but it doesn't have landing gear, clear parts for cockpit or open cargobay. price for this mini series by bandai is quite low. this one just 1800 yen, you could try it. following korean blogs full review, take a looks. i use miniatures/AFV techniques to paint my razor crest.
