Wow you are one talented modder and painter!..btw Ive never modded but I want to try your idea of crystals for engine thrusters so I ask what crystal sizes are the closest fit for small and medium base ships?

He uses little stick-on crystals used in scrap-booking and the like. They come in a wide range of colours, shapes & sizes.

The website link Harker dropped uses a tab where you choose pick millimeter (default was 4 I believe). They then come in range of colors.

Don't remember that. You're probably going to have to go through all the posts in his topic.

@Buddha Fett Every time I see your posts I have to do a double-take. " I don't remember writing that! "

2nd StarViper but this one Heavily Modified with all of the wings,

cut into segments and reattached into something looking like a Stargate Goauld Fighter and the F302

Bookmarked I just got my spare Viper to try this Mod, but I'd lost the bookmark because my Old PC just died last month. Had a friend on the Facebook Group direcxt me here. This is going to be such a great Mod to do!

Glad for the help! Thanks again!

Glad you found the Star Viper Mod Link, its an easy modification to do to the model.

so You shouldn't have much trouble, Easier with plastic weld poly cement than super glue though.

as it will be stronger.

Good luck on the build, All the best,

Barry.

To me it looks like the Starviper should have instead of the bizarre wannabe flitty bug thing it is in Canon. Beautiful conversion. :)

Yes It did always look a bit odd, I just wanted something that looks like it could actually fly, plus it has a similar appearance to the death gliders and X302 from Stragate SG-1....Great classic TV !

All the best,

Barry.

Crikey, Been a while since I have been back on the Forum.

I can see you have all been very busy 😎

Haven't played a game since last June, although playing a game this weekend....should reignite my

enthusiasm for the game again and start some more builds.

Hope your all well.

all the best,

Barry.

Are you still going to play first edition?

Hello Force,

Yes we are still playing Version one because none of us like Version 2, and we are playing our next few games

with huge Ships......next weekend we are going to have a 650 point game. Rebels & Scum Vs Imperials.....Trying to run the Blockade with as many big ships and transports as I can, Should be a good fun game. if not a long one !

Had a practice game to get back into it and familiarise ourselves with the rules.

I may actually start building again after this has got my enthusiasm back.

All the best, Barry.

Hello Guys,

Hope you are all well, Especially in the current circumstances !

My Apologies for not being on the forums these past few months.....nearly a year now I think. With my current work situation being very crazy and full on. but also more notably my severe dislike of the new Star Wars films. So much so they put me off anything Star Wars for a long time ! I disliked it all so much I got rid of most of my collectables and will soon be selling most of my X Wing collection along with many of these custom models. But ill wait until things settle down, More important things to concentrate on at the moment.

Mandalorian though is great, also makes it still possible for Lucas Film to still do something close to proper Star Wars.Thought I should pop in and say hello, Look through all of the great work you guys have all been doing and be a bit more regular from time to time now.

Take care everyone and look after your self's and those around you.

All the best,

Barry.
