The painting will come Boba.....I'm excited for you....your Y-wing is really coming together beautifully...take yur time&take care of that model!I dont wanna hear any horror stories of something happening to it.So..yur main plug ins for the electrical will be on the bottom?If I remember correctly...the ILM model had... 4 mouting points if I'm not mistaken......bottom,rear,.....and either the top,or front of the cockpit where the main cannons are,I dont think there was a side mounting point.
