    Building Revel's 1/121 Darth Vader's Tie fighter, should be a fun little build. Started with priming and painting Vader.

    So a rather quick paint and build and this is where I'm at on it - Needs some weathering now.

    Being Vader's Tie fighter I gave it a much darker look - with black mixed with a bit of blue and a dark grey blue.

    @anthonyricco - Hmmm, I think you need to build a 1/72 scale version and add lighting to the cockpit. The small one was a proof of concept.

    Thanks a lot @chinesegeorge. Yeah I wanted it to be more ominous than the normal grey ones.
