Here's another spares box build. I knocked this one up on the quiet without an in progress thread, The idea is it's Star Wars ship from the Aratti system (It's a big galaxy they have) used to escort commerce ships. I had a 1/48th Cobra and a Mil Hind in 1/72nd. Other parts came from the bits boxes as and when required. It's an odd looking thing I must admit. The Pilot gets a full on frontal view at least. Guns are under the chin. The tail came from a WW2 German whiff. I wanted a slightly alien design look. I think I got there. The underside, obviously. Engines are two 1/48 Mosquito nacelles. And there he is. I sprayed gloss white on it and did lots of weathering and big paint chips. The round object at the front top is the Nav droid. Slotted in behind the cockpit, like on an X wing. One of the in progress pics that I took. And a pre-primer shot. Pre-primer again. The droid was a large yellow light. The round bits at the engine rears were clothes hanger size rings. There are bits of masking tape on the droid here. And the basic airframe so you can see the main parts. Thanks for looking. Your comments are always welcome. Cheers, Pete

Something different for me, but nice simple kit Amazingly it starts with the cockpit Seems to have painted up quite nicely. Peter

Here is the latest in my collection of Dogs, Kilos and Limas, this one was going to be a Korean AF machine but the decals were awful. I used my usual method of lots of differnt silver/aluminium paints to get a patchwork effect. I photographed her basking in the sunshine as today is the hotest day of the year so far. Thanks for looking
