This is the Salzo kit. It got full lighting and scratch cockpit to resemble the full size version.













Thanks

And thank you Kurt. But in all honesty the credit goes to all those beautiful builds here and elsewhere. This being the first SS X-wing for me I'd have been a little lost without the help and examples of others. What a kit though!!! My hats off to Mr. Salzo.

I have been putting off painting mine for over a year now.
Need to take some vacation and attend to this.

Any painting advice?

Hey now theres a question lol... JK

Make sure the parts are well prepped. Then make sure you have a very good selection of pastels, oils, inks, and acrylics to work from for the weathering. And as many references as you can find. From there it is just a long slow process of layers, lots and lots of layers.
