I happened across this on eBay a couple of months ago. This ship is probably less known out of Star Wars vessels, but to me it holds a special place in that it is the final thing we see in the absolute best Star Wars movie ever made. It shows up in Return of the Jedi as well, and might have been one of the ships in the big attack at the end of The Rise of Skywalker. No scale, but it measure about 9" in length.
I painted this with Squadron’s starship colors. Starship Gray #3 seemed to best approximate the almost white gray the original model builders used. I picked out panels with Starship Gray #1, a slightly darker grey. The engine lights are clear yellow painted atop a base of white. Weathering is a mix of AMMO’s starship wash and metal slag (a pigment applied around the engine nozzles). I also mixed white paint with a touch of sky blue to paint various windows to match what we see in the movie, including the big window where Luke, Leia, and the droids are standing behind watching the Millennium Falcon’s departure. The stand is an acrylic base I picked up from a guy on eBay who makes them for spaceship/scifi miniatures.
