X-wing red 5 - finished!


Recommended Posts

I've started building this a year ago or so, and it's been standing in the shelf for quite a while, but now it's finally finished! :)

Here's some pics! :)

Thanks Neal! :)

Yes, you're right about the red bleeding a bit. I'll have to sort that out!

The AMT kit claims it's an easy snap fast with colors and all included, but if I've tried it in my youth, I'd prolly given up or ended up with a crappy modell.

After cleaning up it built quite easily though. They've messed upp with the laser canons and turned each cannon 90 degres. It could have been sorted by cutting off each cannon and rotated them, but I discovered it too late. It's not only the half moon top that's wrong it's the entire cannon.

The canopy is also wrong, and I guess there are other details missing too.

But with some painting and weathering it looks quite nice and will end up on a good spot in my shelf. :)

Cheers,

Håkan
