Finished my x-wing

[ohbejuan]

I am happy with the sponge painting and panel line wash (Tamiya grey, combined with a sludge wash), but unhappy with the blast impact on the wing

Hey I think it looks great. I don't even have an x wing. Well I have the old mpc one. But not a Bandai.

The quistion is: did you have fun?

And do you look forward to your next build?

Don't look too awful bad to me neither.

I think it looks good, as long as you enjoyed the build and learned from it! Now take what you learned and apply it to your next build. I have been modeling for over 50 years now and am still trying new stuff and learning a bit from every new model.
My only complaint about your X-wing is that R2-D2 is not in the back seat!

You've done a great job. I defy anyone else to give you tips on the blast damage. I've never flown an X-Wing in combat, so I can't offer you any advice on the blast damage!

As others have said, if you've learned, and had fun along the way, then I'd say you should be well pleased. My tuppence worth in any case.

Andrew,
Are you sure you never flew an X-wing in combat? I thought for sure I remember seeing you in the ready room on the forest moon of Endor when we launched the attack on the Death Star!
