Finally, an X-Wing!

Finally, an X-Wing!

I'd been waiting and waiting to get this kit as a lifelong Star Wars fan and boy was it more than I expected. I knew it was gonna be snap parts but I didn't expect quite as many with a kit like this but here we are!

I did have a slight breakage on one of the wings I ended up gluing, not sure how it broke. But this was also my first foray into water decal and masking. I ended up forgoing both. I couldn't quite get cutting the tape away to get to the area of the window to paint. I also ended up just painting the R2 unit. Something about the decal I just can't get right. But at any rate, she is done - after a bit of panel liner and weathering - and I'm very happy about it!
