Greetings, Everyone.

It's time for another Showcase Thread. In this thread we will be looking at the old warhorse that's served both the Rebellion and Scum...the Y-wing.

Form up with your wingman and prepare for the bombing run!

$##!?!&. Now I've got to go home and finish the things

Rebel:

Scum:

Need to get some more of these.

YLLA Nail, that white & blue-green Y makes my liver quiver! What color is that? or did you mix it yourself? I think I'm going to repaint one of my Y's to look like yours.

Here are my Y's. They need some retouching though.

And unless you put it side by side the stock Scum Y-Wing, you can't seem to tell I did anything to my Scum Y. I was going for a more orangey tone, but alas. This is one that needs revisiting.

I don't think it was straight from the pot, I believe I started with a forest green and then added things to lighten it as I went. Thanks for the kind words!

Here is Swamp 7, slightly retouched. I need to do something to my second Y, need to get Swamp 8 in the sky.

I don't know, Force. I really like that. I mean, it may not match your vision, but it is an excellent rendering.

My two Y-Wings flanking the junkyard hog.

Well they all great !

The Y-Wing has to be one of the easiest ships to " Mod "

And I have seen a few on the forum.

Its also one of my Favourite ships in Star Wars and have Hot Rodded a few of them.

Here is my First Scum Y-Wing Custom, Made early last year for Kavil..................

A more simple conversion for use with Scum or Rebel, and used as a spare incase I get pulled up for having a questionable model in a Tournament

This one Doesn't look much like a Y-Wing at all. But if you look at the centre section, you can just make it out.

It was Built to be part of a Mandalorian Squadron and look close to the Protectorate Fighter.

Y-Wing main body, T-70 X-Wing engines, Styk Cockpit and Decimator 360" weapon pod and scratch built wings and canards......

Looking forward to seeing more Cool Y-Wings

You can do so much with this simple frame !

All the best,

Barry.

Painted up my second Y-Wing.

The two together, Y-Wingmates.

I love the Y-Wing, although I have to admit it had to grow on me. As a kid the X- and A-Wings seemed much cooler than the slower paced bombers... It's a good thing Rogue One showed them some love again.

This is my interpretation of Ahsoka's personal ride: Fulcrum 1.

Some excellent variations on the Y-wing re-paints.

Must be one of the most versatile ships to repaint.

Nothing special here, just a scummy look

Whoa, love your mods! Very impressive

I'll post my Y-Wings if I'll find their photos xD

Thanks BlueFrog,

Looking forward to seeing your pic's when you post them

All the best,

Barry.

My Black Sun Cartel Y-Wings

@Vindicare101 At first I thought your Y-Wing was possessed by the ruinous powers of chaos! Nice paint jobs

Not the best pic, sorry. Can't get more because she's been repainted a few times since.

Hey everyone! Mind if I get in on the fun, too!

Here are my custom Y-Wings… Gold 1 and 2, and the ILM "Prototype" known as the "Red Jammer" - I like to think this is Keyan Farlander, circa the Battle of Yavin (as he's lone surviving Y-Wing at the end of ANH).

I was going to be mad at you for impersonating Barry Harker until I checked the name. Hah. Just got off of reading your amazing forum and was leery
