Revell 1/72 Razor Crest

Post by Mikeew »

Hi everyone.
I've recently finished the Revell 1/72 Razor Crest which is the starship owned and flown by The Mandolorian in the series of the same name on the Disney+ streaming service.
It is built straight from the box although I left out the figure of the Mandolorian which was very poorly moulded.
The interior was painted as per the instructions and lightly weathered as little can be seen on the finished model despite having the cargo doors opened.

Main paint work was simply Tamiya AS-12 Bare Metal Silver rattle can decanted for the airbrush. The weathered yellow markings were supplied as decals and try as I might they did not want to play so it was out with the masking tape before masking fluid was sponged on for the weathered/chipped effects. The yellow was a home brew from Tamiya acrylics.
Weathering was achieved with an oil wash to highlight the panel lines before some streaking and staining was applied using MiG Oilbrusher with the aptly named "Starship Filth".

Overall build time approx 10 hours I reckon, there really is not much to it.

Excellent!

I'm waiting for the Round 2/AMT version to see how it compares before making a choice on which to buy.

That looks great Mike 👍 I've got it in the stash to build and just hope it'll come out somewhere near as good as yours.
Best wishes

Excellent job! It is surprising to see so much flash on the parts in a new-mold kit...
