YT-1300 Corellian light freighter

My phone died last week, so I was looking for a way to keep occupied in the evenings. I came across the metal earth model kits the in-laws got me last Christmas that for whatever reason I just hadn't found time to work on yet. This seemed like as good a time as any.
So no phone meant no build shots, but I have plenty of finished shots once I finally got my new phone and had a camera to play with.
Some of these pieces were crazy small! I wish I had build shots just to document how insane some of these were.
I've build major pieces of furniture, and parts of this were driving me crazy. I guess my beefy hands are better suited for rougher work.
But in the end it doesn't look too bad.
Here's a butt shot. The struts those landing feet are on were insanely tiny. That was probably the hardest part of the build.

With this one done, I also have a batmobile and Iron Man set to maybe build. We'll see. And in bigger news, I'd like to build the girl a desk at some point. I better get crackin' while I have some time before my next classes start.
