i really, really like your blues. every model you have painted that blue is your secondary or primary color just really jumps out. You have a nack for blue for certain, and your other models look great too.

Thanks!

What was the process for the green one? I'm currently greening up some of my wings and I really like the look of it.

It's just brushed on then stained with watered down black acrylic.

My first time posting pictures (I hope I'm doing it right) I just enjoy alternate color schemes.

Nice job, that little rebel logo is the business!

Awesome B-wings! I never realised that green would look so good on a B-wing!

Now do a Yellow and a Black B-wing. LET'S GO VOLTRON FORCE!

I could, I have six!

Though these are not quite up to the caliber of the previous posts, here are my magnetized-repainted Blue Squadrons...

TabletopXwingPilot: Firstly, thank you for populating these boards with repaints of various fighters. I can't get enough of them. The various colour schemes look awesome. One point of critique though, the quality of the images hides a lot of your detail. I can't help but feel that a lot of your work is lost in these pics due to the image's low quality.

Icareane: Inspired by your X-wing repaint I checked out your blog. You do some amazing work, have wonderful how-tos and always use simple and accessible resources. Thanks for taking some time to show your skills and pass on some great tips.

A lot of my images are old phone pics. I will look to replace them so you can see how bad I really am.

Magnetic, weighted, A-10 warthog 30mm gatlin.... Now where's a Tie!

How did you do the pin-up art on the wing?

Made the pinup girl on my computer with photo shop and my desk jet printer

Thanks for sharing.

Really like this! What brand & color did you use for the grey base?

The ship is actually Tamiya primer white. The oil wash toned the brightness done to what you see here. The Tamiya brand primers are really nice coverage and don't hide any details. I used Vallejo for the some of the grey highlights.

Hey is there a tutorial on how to change the position of the model to make it fly in a horizontal position and change the canopy to match its flight position?
