1/24 scale Ralph McQuarrie concept X-Wing scratchbuild

[REL]

I'm working on the cockpit/pilot.

That pilot is all business.

 

[Carson Dyle]

Rock me, Amadeus.

Terrific work, Rich. Can't wait to get my hands on one of these babies.

 

[Rats]

Looks beautiful Rel, love the dark paint scheme on the pilot. Very purposeful.
Can't wait to see what you do to the rest of it. :cool
Cheers, JT

Damn that looks awesome.

 

[REL]

Thanks.

I'm starting on the paint now. I'm trying to weather it and be as subtle as possible, since in the painting there's really none at all, which is fine for the painting, but on a model it would look too much like a toy with no weathering.

 

[masterjedi322]

Love it! Nice work. Is that airbrushing?

[jockdeboer]

Wow, that is looking real good!

 

[Carson Dyle]

Spot on, Rich.

I was wondering how you were going to approach the weathering, and I think the light touch shown here is right on the money.

 

[REL]

Thank you. It's all airbrush.

 

[Tony]

Looks great Richard! I can't wait to do my paint scheme when my kit arrives.

 

[REL]

I'm working on the body now. I decided to put some lights on the R2 strip.

The great thing about this kit is there's no right or wrong way to build it. No narrowly defined view of how it should look. It should be interesting to see what people do with it.
