amazing work as always. the scratch built pieces and details add depth and uniqueness to an otherwise standard kit. 
this looks to be in good scale with the action fleet ships...
I've been meaning to pick me up a few of these easy kits and never got around to getting any of them. :(   seeing your masterfull work on them realy makes me want to go get them.

The Y-wing is probably my favorite fighter yet and your work on this one warms my soul, FF.  Very nice work!

FF, that Y-Wng is a beaut, I especially like the black ident pattern you've painted to the cockpit section, it's very original and works really well with the bomber. I also think you've weathered it perfectly, the technique you've used highlights the detailing perfectly, making it look far more complex.

I really like what you've created, it's a great addition to your portfolio and an original piece.

Top marks!!!

T-65BR X-wing reconnaissance starfighter

The T-65BR X-wing reconnaissance starfighter, commonly called the Recon-X or Snoopscoot, was a variant of the Incom T-65 X-wing starfighter modified for reconnaissance missions. A vast improvement over the aged and slow Longprobe Y-wings, the T-65BR featured an advanced, high-gain, long-range sensor package with high-speed hypertransceivers in place of the standard X-wing's proton torpedo launchers.
The on-board R2-R-series astromech droid coordinated the sensors to provide maximum efficiency, a requirement when jumping into potentially dangerous zones. It was also equipped with a HoloNet communicator that enabled it to relay its findings instantaneously to allied command centers.
(wookieepedia: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/T-65BR_X-wing_reconnaissance_starfighter)

the model kit:
The starting point was of course a Revell eayskit X-Wing starfighter (http://www.revell.de/starwars/produkte/en-x-wing-fighter.html)
length: 218mm
wingspan: 195mm
scale: ~1/100
no. of parts: 38

the custom:
I used model kit bombs, wire, parts of an old computer board, Iron Man missiles etc. for the custom

change list:
*long-range sensors in the front
*towed sonar in the back
*access door on the bottom
*detailing of the cockpit
*lines for the landing gear
*new painting
*weathering

amazing! I've seen others make this variant using action fleet models but I've never seen anything this detailed before.  You sir, are by far one of the most accomplished modelers whose work I've had the pleasure of viewing!

do the rear sensors pull out or is that a swappable feature... in other words do the wires retract into the vehicle?
