Painted Revell 1/5000 scale Imperial Star Destroyer

Painted Revell Star Destroyer Commission

This was a really interesting commission project.  I’ve categorised it under “Star Wars Armada” as that’s the closest category, for obvious reasons!

The model is over a foot (30cm) long – quite a bit bigger than an Armada Star Destroyer.  

The hull was painted with lots of stippling, followed-up with by a number of grey washes, and then plenty of dry-brushing to bring out the detail. (The hull actually has lots of detail on it – the model itself is fantastic.)

Sadly, we didn’t go further and add more details to the hull – I think some yellow ship lighting would help make the model look more ‘real’.  

I was really pleased with the blue engines – I shall try and remember to use them as a template for future Armada projects.
