1/48th MPC Tie interceptor


Recommended Posts

Hi to all.

I finished this simple kit.

The only modifications were the pilot's helmet and the addition of the box and hoses.

It was painted with Testors acrylics.

I hope you like it.

Regards,

Pablo.

Very nice Tie, my friend. 

 

One thing that always struck me about the design.... if space-ships actually were to engage in close-up "dog-fights", surely the presence of large, vertical wings on both sides would be a huge disadvantage? A design which stops the pilot from seeing any enemy attacking from the sides?

Didn't Douglas Adams introduce something like the total panic sunglasses?

 Yeah zaphod beeblebrox wore sunglasses that went totally black if you were in danger so you couldn't see the scary stuff!
