Re: Poe's X-Wing
I subscribed earlier. Looking good, Mike. I do not understand why the kit parts did not fit. Highly unusual for abandai.

Re: Poe's X-Wing
I think I figured out the problem. Some of the parts are miss-labeled on the instructions. I was adding some parts to the wings and noticed that they're only going to fit in one spot and one spot only.

Re: Poe's X-Wing
Makes sense. Good catch, and you solved the problem by removing the locators. All good. No head pounding, bud. You got this.

Re: Poe's X-Wing
I've gotten good at figuring these things out. At least I got it before I really screwed up something.

Primed the X-wing parts. Hope to paint some things tomorrow.

Re: Poe's X-Wing
X-Wings use the same Sergeant Fletcher drop tanks as Phantoms?

Re: Poe's X-Wing
Great bench shot! Your finish work is phenomenal. Yea it’s primer but it’s smooth as silk.

Re: Poe's X-Wing
Alright it's time to get back to work on things. Adding the cockpit and building up the fuselage on the X-wing.
