Custom Imperial Decimator

By GorFrag, in X-Wing Painting and Modification

I dislike the current Decimator design, so i went retro:

This is well made. But more like...

Retroactive "no WE did it first" retro. No offense to your craftsmanship. You did a great job.

I'd hate sharing the board with her though.

We did it first? I'm not sure what you mean.

I'm cribing off the Kotor sith interceptor.

That looks amazing. Great work.

I've been wanting to do this too!
I just settled for ordering the Sith Fury Interceptor from Shapeways.

What did you do for parts?

Gorgeous work! I was going to ask what you used for the wing panels as well.

looks like wings from a larger Interceptor model.. I'm guessing :

That is the kit I used, yes. I took photos during most of the build. I'll post them soon.

Nailed it. Seriously jealous of that Deci/Fury build, I've been wanting a Sith Fury forever since I used to have one in SW:TOR.

Really tempted to keep an eye on 1st edition Deci prices and make one too... already have a couple Interceptor models :D

How I made the wings open. I used two sizes of tubes. The bigger tubes were a bit too small to slide over the smaller tubes. I then cut the outer tubes into ā€œCā€ shapes that can clip on to the inner tubes. The outer tubes being tighter makes them hold on nice and tight. I could also paint the inside easy too.

That's the Sith Fury Interceptor! It's one of my favourite ships in all of Star Wars.

Hang on, let me jam a Decimator in an envelope with a wad of cash.....

I have a spare prototype, but I'm not sure what the rules are for trying to sell stuff on these forums. I seem to remember they got shut down for such things.

What kind of price did you have in mind? I'm pretty keen! But would have to throw in shipping to Shanghai...I might be keen?

can someone ask a moderator if this is allowed?

Oh, right. Sorry....!

Is it ok to PM me?

i looked for a way to pm, i didn't see it. PM me and we'll talk.

God that's pretty! Amazing job man.
