These all look incredible.

Do you have some particular method of doing your stripes, or are you one of those gifted folks with steady hands?

Wow... :blink: great job... love it

Very nice! What inspired you to use the neon-green on the TIE Bombers? I know they don't have lasers under the cockpit so you did like Rogue Squadron and added them onto the bomb section?

Ta - had to touch them all up since the camera revealed all the mistakes you can't see IRL :/ Started my Interceptor last week, which I've really taken my time with. Very proud of it!

Exactly that, Leo! I knew I remembered dreaming that up from somewhere - it seemed like the logical place on the model, the 'pips' even look the same as the cannons on the TIE/ln. Glad you noticed!

I have very shaky hands from years of caffeine abuse - the good thing about making up my own non-canon Imp squad is that I can claim the bloodstripes are hastily painted by the pilots ;D
