Topic: FP 1/72 V-Wing

[nicholassagan]

This is Fantastic Plastic’s V-Wing mastered by Alfred Wong. The panel lines are definitely not as crisp as they could be. Filling, sanding and rescribing is recommended. The wing hinges are also really fragile…some super glue bonded my left hinge and I had to tear it apart to fix it. The wings ended up permanently fixed in the open position. The guns are also quite fragile so they were replaced with brass rods with piping on the ends. The paint scheme is the Imperial gray, pretty much only seen on screen in the last space shot in Ep III. I’ve been using Mr. Surfacer as a primer and it had the perfect color so I sanded the first coat and added another. Perfect!
