Those Hungarians... always so ambitious and nuts (I mean that in a positive way). Hard to compete with - the good thing is: you can learn a LOT.

Keep up that great work

That’s a pretty impressive build Corel – I’m blown away by it in fact – if you’re a noob, the what the hell am I???? I love the A-wing, it was always my favourite Starwars fighter, and you’ve done a cracking job on the build and the weathering.

I’d have been tempted to leave the Rebel Alliance Symbol as it was, and incorporate it into the rest of the weathering on the base – it look really well scuffed up.

Take it easy,

Stuart

So. This is how I maed it.

First. Sanding.
Image

Than lot of layers, and heavy chipping, and more layers, and more and more ... only with brush. But ... I don't know ... maybe too dark.

The tarp made it like the figure painting. I like it, but there is a lot of work to do.

That is shaping up quite nicely. The correct used look of the Star Wars universe
