Dances With Wolves Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Greetings, members of the resistance. Fine Molds 1/48 X-Wing has been brutally tickled into a rendition of Luke's ride. Sadly, Revell's decals don't measure up to the eye watering 70 odd beer vouchers indicated on the box being pixilated, stiff and impervious to anything south of a welder's torch, so the markings were rendered in paint. Notwithstanding the decals, the kit's a ton of fun. Bare Metal foil was used for the oleos. Come in Red 5... Happy days Steve 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karl Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 That is a really superb build, just a nice amount of shading and weathering... really like it. I had this kit in my hand in my local model shop, and I really want one... but the£70-odd quid price tag is just too much for me. To be honest I would be happy with the old MPC X-Wing....
