        Well,it doesn't look great in those crap pics,but trust me, it's better in real life!! Been doing some streaking grime since these pics, but that's for the next update,also put on the turret hatch,and attempting to paint up Chewi!! ... Until then......

              Looks fantastic Andy
              Strength isn't about what you can do, rather it's about overcoming what you thought you couldn't do.

                    Mr Smiffy I’m sorry but I’m not a Star Wars fan that’s why I haven’t followed any builds in this GB no offense to any but it looking great.

                        Anyway, enough waffle,"ere be pics",(well,just a couple)....
