Finished - lost my job so selling customs to keep the lights on at the moment Ebay item 293608243913 if anyone would like it

The Tie Strikers are low altitude atmosheric patrol fighters, this custom is based on the versions that operated on Scarif, flying over the sandy beaches they would pick up sand & water from the oceans, this custom replicates that with the sandy look, slighty frosted, sandy cockpit window to replicate water vapour, weathered then finished to give it a slight wet look (hard to see on the pictures) engine painted blue,inside of the cockpit lid painted to look like metal, nerf darts painted to look like bombs and weathered with a dark gray & sand colour

Its crazy. I am wondering if we are ever gonna be able to deal with all the fallout of this and now they are warning of a second wave this coming Fall. 2020 is one for the record books and not in a good way!

Now, the taste of a having lost your job is not the best. I hope you'll find a new one right away. By now I really support the idea that China need to pay for the global damage caused by the virus they unleashed. Fingers crossed for you, mate!

Your TIE Striker looks absolutely amazing! You made it look authentic to its mission o Scarif! I especially like the dust on the cockpits's shield!
