Impressive work!

What did you use for reference pictures? (please post links if applicable)

Can't wait to see these in a phalanx when they are all done

Waitaminute Are you and FourtyTwo competing?

I'm no painter, but these look impeccable. Bravo.

If you ever feel like doing another, there's always Red 1 from Return of the Jedi.

No competition is intended, haha. I just got into X-Wing and decided that I was going to put my skills to work on the most iconic ships in the movies. I've also finished Gold Leader and plan on doing everybody present at the Battle of Yavin and maybe even all of the Battle of Endor.

If you want to see my references, here's the link to the originals.

What paint did you use for the x-wing base colour?

I used Vallejo Deck Tan, which fits perfectly. I only used it where necessary. It's not a full repaint.

Am I right in thinking these are all 1e fixed wing models, rather than the flappy 2e versions?

Luke and Porkins are the movable wing models, the rest are fixed wing.
