Sweet! If you get a chance can you do some dark room shots so we can see the lighting better? I'm dying to see how the R2 lights look in the finished model now.
Also, big thanks to Howard for those Saturn V parts. I caniballized two of those deelies for this Y, out of my Colonial Movers stash - he helped me replenish them!
Thanks Jason. It was a pleasure to help out!
I must say everyone, Jason and I traded for these Saturn V parts, and I ended up with more than was agreed upon.
As well as being a world class modeller, he's a generous guy!
I had been thinking of buying an MR Y-Wing. But now I'm reconsidering. After seeing this thread and your build diary, I'm afraid it would be hard to be satisfied with the stock version! :lol
Sorry for the bump... I'm finally making good progress on my Y-wing. I've been searching for the best paint job of a Y-wing. I'm not saying this one is necessarily the most studio accurate, but I think you did a PHENOMENAL job of painting/weathering in the spirit of what the vehicle is supposed to look like.
