Mining Guild TIE Fighter
« on: November 04, 2016, 01:42:32 PM »
Mining Guild TIE fighters were modified TIE/LN starfighters that the Mining Guild was allowed to use due to its association with the Galactic Empire. In order to make those fighters clearly distinct from the ones in direct service of the Empire, they had a yellow colour scheme. They also had a notch cut in their stabilizers, giving them only eight solar collectors instead of twelve, which gave them improved visibility, but greatly diminished their combat capabilities and maneuverability. This one was modified from the old AMT 1/51 TIE 2-pack. Its wingman was built OOB and given an early, light blue colour scheme.

Hmmm... I don't seem to be having much luck linking from Google Photo. Let's try Photobucket instead...


Still no joy. Any ideas? This has never happened before.

yepper, we are getting the page code and note the image. The img code will end in your .jpg only. I added a few I found in your gallery. You can hit modify and see what the code looks like if you want.

The ship is fantastic! Wow, wow, wow! Off to share in all the right places.

Yeah, that yellow TIE is one of the most awesome things I have seen in a while. I'm still planning on doing that to a Hasbro small wing, like in the show. I love your version, your models are out of this world, very awesome indeed.

Awesome custom and paint apps mate, and I actually like the paint bleeds it gives it that quick paint scheme feel to it.
