Green Group, stay close to homing sector four.

Nice painting!

Ahha nice, I haven't seen painted bases yet. Duh, why didn't I think of that! Good job! Great Paint. Keep on blastin!

Really like that X-wing.

Thanks for the compliments. I never thought of painting the bases till me and my gf were playing and both using my green repaints... Paing the base sides made playing easier and looks cool.

Which of the 2 xwing a did you like? The blue or green?

I like the concept, and the execution (was thinking something similar, just havn't done it yet). Only suggestion is to give the Y-Wing a little more love, seems a little mono-tone with the tan back and green fronts, seems like it just lacks something. Otherwise great repaints!

I agree. Green and black are always a nice combination.

I can't say I'm big on the purple accents, but hey, that's just my opinion. As for the actual painting quality, everything looks quite good.

Hmm I'll see what I can do with the y wing... It does have some purple on the underbody. Maybe a colored r2 unit. Or some stripes

If you break up the green with some white, it will do wonders for the Y-wing. Try painting a bull's eye on each nacelle dome by painting progressively smaller circles of green and white. I plan on doing the same thing with red and yellow when I get my second Y.

If you want to erase some of the prepainted panels on the X- and A-wings, Camouflage Gray is almost identical to the light gray color used by the factory, and after a wash you won't be able to tell the difference. :)

What company makes camouflage grey?

If I'm not mistaken he's referring to the Testor's color.
