Shawn M Posted April 5, 2018 Author Share Posted April 5, 2018 thank you Carl! That should be a neat addition, the kit comes with an exhaust port base LSP_K2 and BloorwestSiR 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn M Posted April 8, 2018 Author Share Posted April 8, 2018 Solid start on the Bandai 1/72 X-Wing this weekend. This kit is GREAT! Everything fits, the detail is sharp and the molding is awesome. Note: Im not even done with the wing yet, lots to paint still BloorwestSiR, LSP_K2, Shaka HI and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_K2 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Now this X-wing is something I'd like to see in September, Shawn. (Hopefully I'll have my Romulan ship done by then too.) Shawn M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn M Posted April 9, 2018 Author Share Posted April 9, 2018 thanks guys! Kev, not sure if this is contest bound, its an OOB stress reliever for me at this point. LSP_K2 and BloorwestSiR 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloorwestSiR Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 thanks guys! Kev, not sure if this is contest bound, its an OOB stress reliever for me at this point. Great work Shawn! That's one of the best things about these Bandai kits. Close your eyes, throw paint and glue(optional) at their general vicinity and a nice model pops out. Not quite as you do have to decide between stickers and decals. Carl Shawn M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn M Posted April 10, 2018 Author Share Posted April 10, 2018 decals all the way, I love working with them. Im going to get the second wing to the same stage then start to post fade with some white to bring it that bit closer to my desired color and deterioration LSP_K2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BloorwestSiR Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 I did pick this up from a show a couple of years ago. Nice kit! In case you weren't aware, it's a rebox of the Fine Molds kit. There's a ton of AM out for it if you decide to fall down that rabbit hole. I've got one of those in the stash along with the Bandai PG one. Which works out nicely as the FM/Revell is the Empire Strikes Back version and the Bandai is the A New Hope one. Carl LSP_K2 and Shawn M 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
