Shuttle Repaint - Crimson Guard Shuttle

By Vent, in X-Wing

Started off a dark grey, but I didn't like it. Went over it with red, leaving the grey, then someone said I needed more contrast and added the while.

And then I decided to do the engine glow in the traditional blue...

Nice work :) I should repaint my ships too

that looks great.

Cool. The white was a good call

Beautiful.

A few opinions by myself so please don't treat as criticism.

Not sure on the banding. Although fantastically done the grey doesn't quite work maybe just 2 fine white lines opposite to bloodstripes.

My biggest bug bear is the cannons. I hate this on the original lambda. In my opinion they should have more contrast, maybe black with highlight.

But as I said above beautiful !!

I see absolutely no issue. This is utterly fantastic.

I like it nice repaint.

Sorry I should have been clear in the first post. This is still just a WiP. It's the end of using the airbrush, time to dig out the brushes... I've always planned on changing the guns and a few other bits and pieces... ^_^

Ooohhohohooo. Can't wait.

I envy your airbrush skills. Great job so far.

I think you've done a great job so far, when I did my School bus repaint I put Imp symbols on the upper fin and the wings and it really made them pop. so I put the decals on the pure white ones and those look awesome too..

can't wait to see more progress

Sick! Absolutely gorgeous.

Very nice. Crimson is a great "standard" evil color.

Looking good, can't wait to see the final result!

Not sure about the green base though. It might not be tourney legal. :)

Very nicely done.

Why not? The Rebels started the war, not Empire. I will report you too the nearest Imperial Officer.
