Re: Nexus Models X-Wing Build Log by CAPTAINCOX Hi Guys, I am really touched by Mike’s comments on my X-Wing model. It is so nice to read such cool comments on a model that took me years to finish. It is true, it took me 3 years to find the time to design this model and to be able to make it...

Hi guys, First of all, I want to thank all of you for your kind words, and say that I am sorry that there is people I haven't answered their mails yet, sorry Spinner44, I'll write you as soon as I post this. 2013 has been a very busy year. As I went solo and changed to Nexus-Models, at that...

Hi, what an amazing diorama Christrom! It looks like a movie still. The At-At paint job and weathering is superb! Your diorama rocks man! The picture of the At Ats against the sky is breathtaking. Congrats on a masterpiece diorama.

Thanks guys! I kept everyone waiting for a long time for more pics! It was really tricky to get a nice base color for it. And the weathering has several layers of it as in the first pics I took it looked too clean so I kept weathering it until it looked OK in the pics. I don't know if...

Hi guys. At last the Snowspeeder is ready. It took me quite a while, and I've been kind of lost working on it and in other stuff. Here are some pics of the built and painted model: Bests: Rod

Sorry guys, I've been very busy with the X-Wing commissions plus the Snowspeeder molding process so I have not had time to finish this build, but I will be posting stuff as soon as I have time to work on it, the thread is not dead yet :) Bests: Rod

Goncalo, amazing find, great work! Thanks a lot!

Hi there guys, long time no see! I was watching again the SAG DVD last week and realized that the top pic of the 5 Footer that appears in the DVD is not the same one as the one in the Chronicles book :eek :eek. I do not know if everyone here knew, but is cool to know that we may still came...

Hi guys, hi Stu mate. You are really brave to start your build with the cockpit mate! I am sure your measures of the cockpit are correct as you have done a very thorough work with all the kit parts at hand. I had the 6" diameter measure idea before, so now I have a bigger part to scale the...

Well done Stu!! I'll modify my cockpit blueprints as soon as I finish the Snowspeeder. Great work!

Knight, I thin it with Acetone. It may be found in the thing chics use to remove the nail paint, but you need the pure version of it. It dries really fast. I buy it here in a pharmacy or drugstore. I do not know the exact name for it in English but there are similar compounds with the name...

Hi there! There are some questions I haven't answered here, first: Why liquified putty? Because spry primers are to thick, and I do not like the primers available in the market here, I've used them before and they do not stick well. Tamiya liquified putty applied with airbrush gives a very...

Thanks 3d-builder. It is just a black primer coat wit camouflage grey on top, to make it look cool. After all this is just a test model and this is as far as I´ll paint it for now as I am constructing the definitive speeder with all the details and stuff this one is missing. You can see the...

Nice pics Stefan! And a very cozy working space you've got there! The 1/48th Red 3 is so well painted that it looks studio scale to me.Congrats. The concept X-Wing is a real beauty. What about a good picture of the Destroyer behind?

Thanks guys. For the ones who asked for the pilot figures, we modified hasbro figures to make them look more real, the helmet and the body attitude to make them look like the actors on the full scale speeder. We also did better goggles butt we haven't assembled a definitive pilot yet. Here...
