cheers dude i just had a look at your tie fighter nice work there mym8!!peza ;D
 
eh up all,
i`ve been doin abit more this week,i desided that rather then drilling a hole in the bottom for the cables to some out of and also it bein on the naff stand i came up with the idea of it bein fuelled up and that the power generator lead could hide the kid`s used sparkler wire which is gonna make the model appear that it`s floatinGEDC2031.jpg


next i started to make my stand/base out of styrene with a bendy straw set in for the wire and electrics to be hidden inGEDC2066.jpg


and finally i primered the top,scored some floor panels and pre shaded themGEDC2067.jpg,i also have finished the top with some tamiya sky grey in the centre of the panels,it`s come out ok but i got abit of splatter,but i`ll do what we all do at home?put a rug on it!!ha...nar i`ll try to wheather it out,but because if masked up the top i can`t show ya the finished photo as yet but i will after i paint the side`s in gloss black..cheers for all ya kind words i`m made up with the feed back.BIG THANKS!! ;Dpeza
 
eh up all,
i`ve finished the base off and here`s an image of that

also i`ve glued the bottom on and to be honest it`s not the best fit but alittle jiggery pockery and a lot of filler and it all should be ok.here are some more images

eh up all,
i`ve managed to get all the fit issues sorted out!
firstly there was the back which i fixed with 2 pieces of 1mm styrene.

next there was the front big gap which i fixed with some white milliput and while i had some mixed up
i sorted out the gap down the sides of the cockpit..
here are some images hope ya like...cheers peza

cheers dude!!!! how`s ya build coming on mym8!!!lookin forward to SWFFD....do you think the modellers might have more room down the bottom end?but still near the bar!!! ;D....cheers peza
 
That is wicked. Man, I love this. That illusion is perfect (might have to borrow that sometime).


Now you're totally making me want to build this kit. Sweet work man. Keep at it.
 
She's looking fantastic ! I agree with everyone else , that refuelling/floating effect is excellent and I may have to steal that idea myself ! ;)
