X-Wing painting stage pretty much done. Next, weathering mounting and wiring up to the base. #histscalemodels #ipms #bandai #plasticmodelling #scratchbuilding #xwing #starwars #rogueone

For the curious, the wiring run for the X wing engines. It’s pretty straightforward, let me know if you need any tips . #plasticmodelling #bandai #starwars #xwing #histscalemodels #ipms

Just realised I hadn’t taken a photo of it in the dome (very hard to get a good shot in this light) I’ll take some proper shots over the weekend.

Bar some tweaking and possibly adding some smoke, Christmas build is done. Operation Dynamo is a success! Rather good fun this one. #histscalemodels #diorama #scratchbuild #ipms #beaconmodels #plasticmodelling
