Good evening,
I was playing a game with my wife recently and she kept getting a little confused as to which X-Wing was which. So, I took it upon myself to make little markers that quickly identified the fighters. I feel this is more fun than simple numbers if flying unique pilots, and simpler than repainting the entire ship.
These replace the number identification tabs. I have made them in the likeness of the pilot's helmet designs.
You may attach them any way you deem worthy. I glued mine to plasticard.
I have completed Wedge, Garven, Luke and 2 Biggs designs. I will attempt others in the near future. Please don't hesitate to give feedback / requests.

Wedge Antilles
Luke Skywalker
Biggs Darklighter
Biggs Darklighter alternative
And yes .. I see the flaw in my plan. My wife has no idea what the pilot's helmets look like, making this whole exercise a futile effort ... but then again, I really didn't make them for her did I!?
Here are some pics of the little guys in action. Enjoy.
