Decimator got personalised

By oneway, in X-Wing

So, I got my Decimator today, and decided to drop some Imp symbols on it to make it feel more... Mine.

Looks good.

Nice

How exactly did you do this? That seems so cool! Can you put maybe a standard TIE beside it for scale? Thanks!

Personally feel like they should have been a little more on the center section of the wing, but still, that's quite cool indeed.

Lackwit, I don't disagree, but with some critical decision making I went with this spot for them.

The decal paper I use is thicker than some other types, so the hull detail on the port wing might have been an issue. And obstacles in their current location were towards the wdges, so they were easier to deal with. Now if I was painting these it wouldn't have been an issue..

Here ya go.. The TIE is also on a gimble mount, that's why its tilted..

Is it odd that i want to paint it to look like an astromech droid?

To do this is a simple process. I print out the decals on special paper, from my home printer. I cut close around the printed decals, then apply them to the model. I also use micro sol, and micro set to help the decal lay better in the groves and detail. Total time involved... half hour.. including sealing them with dullcoat.

You have to give the beast a tilt as well!

You show me how to paint as well as you and I'll show you how to tilt your ships :P

How about putting this on the side of a Decimator.

Was thinking of doing this to mine when it comes in. Nice job.

I'll have to find that balance point you mentioned, but it is an option I was considering

Haha tilt bases.. Magnets make the world go round..
