My custom Z-95.

By LordDanteros879, in X-Wing

I still need to give it a proper wash to fully weather it, but here's a picture of my custom painted Z-95. I based it off of my character in my friends Star Wars game he's running right now. What do you all think?

I'm not sure how i feel about the metallic grey. would look really cool if it was more of a chrome (ala nubian ) and then weathered down. i like where youa re going though

it looks good, the wash will definitly help bring back the paneling details. i think it would look better if the lighting on the picture was abit brighter, that might be making it look darker than it really is, otherwise good job. :)

I have no idea how to pull off a proper chrome. It's hard to tell in the photo but it's more of a black with some scraped paint here and there as the main color. At least that's how it looks in person.

I really like the darker grey actually especially the way it contrasts with the red and white. Great job.

Really liking it thus far man, keep at it. Cool striping.

Thanks! Here's a photo of it with a little bit warmer lighting. This is a lot more close to how it looks in person.

Yeah I didn't just want to use dark grey/black and red because the two don't stand out as much by themselves. So I added some Light Ghost Grey to help make it pop.

oh ok! i see it more clearly now. would deffinately be hard to spot in space. like trying to find a far off tie figter with its panel turned your way

Yeah it definitely has a kind of space camouflage look going on. :lol:

The main reason I chose those colors is in the game my character was raised in the Mandalorian ways, and when he was 16 his mother and sister were taken as slaves while his father was left for dead. Black is the color for Justice and Red for Honoring a Father. It's meant to look similar to his armor colors. Also on the sides of the ship written in Mandalorian is "Fortune favors the bold." I would have added that, but that would have been a pain.

LOVE IT

Very nice. Similar to one I painted, but yours has much better stripes.

Thanks! I took a look at yours, and I like the schemes you came up with for them. I really like the one with the yellow stripes.

Thanks. I'm looking forward to trying four more paint jobs when the Most Wanted pack shows up.

Love it. Looks like pencil lead.
