Re: B-Wing ID thread
Can you believe that was the last kit for me to look at in my stock mate, you've just saved me a grulling day bud. :cool
It's from the Tamiya 1/350 Bismarck or Tirpitz.

A little tip for those with half a brain....Dont primer your subject then pick it up 30 seconds later with a full grip in your hand, it takes a little longer for this stuff to dry.....Amateur hour at Guy-LM today
New guns scratched and original kit parts used

Nice casting indeed. Is this Moe's kit? Guy doing a pilot build for promo? When can we get one? Always questions....

Re: B-Wing ID thread
Very nice casting indeed, and even better mastering. I'm not sure on the kits status, I was very lucky to be able to get my hands on one.
Funnily enough yes, :thumbsup
Its still one of my Fav ships, hoping to have it up n running V soon.

Re: B-Wing ID thread
Now that IS a proper SS B wing!!! As someone who has spent months trying to convert one version of it to a closer copy that picture makes me want to weep for two reasons:
(a) How absolutely and magnificently accurate that cockpit and cabin are !!!
(b) How absolutely and magnificently unaccurate mine still is !!!
Great work Guy ! (or should I be CASTING around for true originators of the work ???). I can see a paint off in the near future!

Re: B-Wing ID thread
All the work you have put into the big version is worth every min, like Danial and TJ's before it it is a very worthy upgrade indeed. I never had the time or patience to do it to mine and sold the second Kit I had.
I def did not produce this model but am just upgrading a few parts here n there and converting it to as close to the Orange spot B as possible. A paint off would be awesome. The SS version is tiny compared with wrong Wong Kit, if there's one thing that impressive about the WW B is its size, we all know size doesn't matter though eh!

Re: B-Wing ID thread
Ahhhhh damn you Guy Cowen (and F & M !!!). I didn't need to see that picture, it makes me want to alter mine even MORE!!!!!!!! Its when you see all those wing proportions right that it hurts the most !!!! There's just nothing I can do any more to correct those. They look perfect in that picture though. I sense a grave disturbance in the force, no its just me weeping quietly into my coffee. Still we'l have fun painting them up. Lets hope for drier weather Guy.

Re: B-Wing ID thread
Dont let it worry you mate, its like trying to turn a VW Camper into a 911Turbo, just make it a great VW camper, to be honest once mine was painted I loved it and it is super impressive, I only sold it as I had an offer I couldn't refuse (with regret now) well up till recently that is.
A little tip for the orange spots, I cut a circle out of double sided sticky tape but without taking the backing off so was only sticky on one side and it worked a treat as a template for the circles.
