Hi all,
I've been waiting in line for the version 4 ss x wing and to help alleviate the wait I decided to build a smaller scale X to get a bit of practice so I won't royally screw up an expensive model later. This kit when assembled measures out to around 435mm long (a bit over 17" long). It's by no means completely accurate. Engine details are wrong, panels, droid strip lack of detailing, etc. quite expensive for a snap together kit but I wanted to build something a bit bigger so this was it. I built it kinda out of the box but added a few bits of styrene for those random triangle and rectangular bits on the front fuselage and elsewhere. A coat of humbrol white primer got rid of the nasty factory paint job and then outlined the lines with black.
