The other day I some how got sucked into watching the begining of Lost in Space, the movie. I know, my life must rock. Anyhow, in the beginning they have the Bubble Fighters that kinda act like Bwings just maybe built different. These fighters had a classic fighter look to them, and by that I mean they had the iconic tiger/shark teeth. I got to thinking, am I good enough to pull this off on a Bwing. So I drew my plans, got another Bwing. And then mixed my paints.
Now the ww2 Flying Tigers had an animal to represent them, and I figured the Star Wars version would need to have some animal to match that. I remembered in SW 2 that the tiger thing that attacked Padame would fit, did some searching and found out its name is a Nexu. So looked at what I could find of that and made due.
First I scrapped off the orange circles from the bwing, ( ina previous post of repaints I stated I hate them, and for no real reason other then I don't like it). These "newer" Bwings seemed to be a little less on the basecoat as I did see I was getting plastic before to long, and on my others they took alot more shaving down to get too.
So I started with the mouth, which is actually a couple coats, as my first set of teeth was no good, so I just painted over it and started new. Topped it off with some stripping and some dots, and finished (I think)
ANd Now I present the newest ship in my fleet. It will be my named pilot or Blue 1 to the Blues I have already.
