Incom T-65 X-Wing (Bandai 1/72)

May 28, 2023 · in Sci-fi · · 9 · 355

My first Bandai build. I must have missed the memo that mentioned how well these kits go together. The fit is fantastic and requires virtually no sanding, or glue for that matter.

Finished with Mr. Hobby, Gunze, and Tamiya paints. Picked up a GreenStrawberry mask to help with the canopy.

  2. Excellent build, Christopher!

  3. Very nice build, Christopher @cchurch1117
    Great work on the weathering.

  4. Great job, and yeah I missed the memo too. I. loved building the one I did pure fun!

  5. @cchurch1117 - Nice work Christopher. The panel lining and weathering look great. Bandai's kits really are fantastic. The engineering on their Gundam kits is kind of amazing actually.

  6. Lovely version of this - very crisp. Yes, if this level of casting detail and engineering were brought to WWII aviation, it might cause a revolution.

  7. I’ve no idea what it is but it looks really great.

  8. Lovely build Christopher. Got it looking like its straight out of the film. Fantastic 😊

    Thinking about doing some Star Wars models now and hanging them from my home cinema room ceiling as it’s all painted in a blue black colour.
