Thanks again for everyone's words. It's an honor for us to get such comments from heavy weight modelers such as you can find in the RPF
Here I leave you some more pics to show you some of the detailing mentoned above.
First of all the detail added to the rear end of the Airfix Saturn V part. We thought that the connection to the Phantom engine would look cooler with some mecha design in there.
The cool thing is that if you don't want the new detailing you can just paste the part with the detail inside and leave the flat half facing the exterior.

Secondly the wing cavity for the engine. We kept the phantom engine part there but we added more detail to the walls and base of that section:

These pictures are from two different wings. These wings are both resin casts from our first mold for the right bottom/left upper wing.
We came up with a better working mold so we are doing a new one.
We used no putty or covered any bubble holes before painting both of these wings
And finaly a picture of the "Butt" placed in the fuselage, something I forgot in the first post:

I will be uploading pictures of the first resin casts and pilot figure as soon as the are ready.

Your additional details are well placed and fit the style of the ship perfectly.
Beautiful.. Indeed! Do I want a copy when you produce the kit? Yes!
Wonderful job Rodmart!. That is one year very well spent, the results speak for themselves.
The extra details are just fantastic & really look the part.
Everything is sooo crisp & precise, you guys really have created a work of art.
Much admired, well done!.
Stu
These are great news! Can't wait!

I would lov to see this as a kit also. Looks awesome
BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!
That's an AWESOME idea!... "If you can't GET one, MAKE one!"
That looks amazing. And just when I was thinking I'd like to have an X-wing.

WOW!!! Really beautiful; great job and looking forward to seeing the finished model (and maybe getting a kit, lol)
Way better detailed than the original. Count me in for one!

Getting better and better. Have you considered a price for the kit yet?
Hi to everyone.
We are currently finishing some of the molds and they will all be finished by the end of next week. We will upload pics of resin casts later today.
Here are a couple of pics of the fuselage meanwhile:

I'm curious about why you seem to still be fine-tuning the design, yet the wings are already painted and weathered. Or did I misread something.
Thanks, this is looking good.

The original sculpts for the whole X-Wing are totally completed except for the pilot. The wings I showed above are from the first mold we took from the master wing. We changed the casting techniques so that mold does not work for us anymore.
I showed the resin wings to give a glimpse of the quality we will offer in our kit.
Right now we are making the new molds that will be ready by the end of next week.
I hope that clears your doubts mate

Wow that΄s really beautiful. I wish I had the money and space to get this kit, but the Salzo V3 has been sitting in its box for two years or so.
I΄m looking forward to build ups though. Just no more boring Red 5s please!
