My first repaint. The Phantom

By Bhunter46, in X-Wing

Hello, here is my attempt at painting a Phantom de-cloaking. I'm fairly happy with it, but I feel like I may have covered to much of the ship with the cloaking effect.

I figured painting one of my Phantoms would help me keep track of where Echo was when playing more then one. The first game I played multiple Phantoms, I got Echo and Whisper mixed up and I ended up giving them both the wrong maneuvers.

Looks great!

Looks very good, the effect isn't overdone at all.

A trick to keeping track of who is who: use the numbering tokens to show pilot skill (so Whisper always has the number "7" token).

This makes it easy at a glance to see which of your ships is firing or moving next. Also, if you aren't already doing so, put your manoeuvre dials by the ships themselves, not with your cards on the edge of the board.

Amazing! Your phantom is alive!

"...may have covered too much of the ship with the cloaking effect."

Why do you say such things? Just because you painted yours a bit different from the ones other people have painted?

BAH!!

It looks awesome man.

I wish I had the guts to paint mine like this.

No I don't think you covered too much it looks good to me.

Looks great I say

Looks really good, congrats.

It looks great. Good job. Also another easy way to not mix your ships up during play is to put one of them on one extra peg. I always do mine so that my highest pilot skill is higher than the rest. Works pretty good in my bomber list.

That's a pretty cool idea.

Beautifully done. Did you follow the tutorial from the guy who did the Interceptor like that? The reverse of the Advanced Cloaking Device card is unique and original.

Thanks for all the nice comments! :-)

Really pretty. Good work! I love seeing all these Phantom paint variants.

I made sure to have a quick look at that video before I started. It was very helpful!

Pretty popular paintjob to do. Always looks good.

I would like to have that skill :D

What video is that? I must have missed it...

I only see one Phantom.... **** those cloaking devices! ^_^

I'm so tempted to paint my Phantom but I might as well let my toddler do it. Yours is so great!
