Next build on the bench will be another very quick one.
Building the Black Poe Dameron X-wing from Revell
Quick look at the kit parts
As well as the bits I'll be ujsing to create a pilot figure for the model
Wings assembled, minus the ends on the engines and the wingtip cannons
Canopy in place on the upper fuselage prior to final assembly.
I've moidified the cockpit itselt to accomodate the pilot figure
Pilot figure is made from a 1/48 Bandai Snowspeeder pilot with arms from a WWII figure set
Pilot was painted with an orange flightsuit. Boots and gloves were painted in with black. His face was painted in with flesh, and his goggles were picked out with yellow.
The whole figure was given a black wash before being placed into the cockpit
I painted in the lower plates on the engines with light grey primer.
The weathering was done by drybrushing a combination of silver, black, and smoke.
