X-Wing

By Michael Walton






This is my T-65 X-wing Starfighter from Fine Molds. I built this kit straight out of the box. No modifications what so ever. It was such a joy to build this model. The only thing I did was wrap a piece of tape around the S-foil so the wings would have a tighter fit.

I painted the X-wing camoflauge gray and did the bit of dry brushing on the thrusters ,fuselage and the S-foils. I then took some black paint mixed with a lot of thinner( about a 4-1 ratio) and filled in all the little nooks and crevaces all over the ship. Last, I brushed on some charcole, sprayed on a coat of clear coat and VIOLA! A nice representation of Luke's Incom T-65.
