    That's pretty impressive for a wooden kit. Looks well designed. Is it glued or simply push together?

        Hi Paul,
        Very nicely done Sir. Was never a big follower of the Star Wars saga, but I do remember doing a job in Cannon studio in Boreham wood. They were shooting a scene involving the ?? Is it Ewoks ? Studio was covered with hundreds of small people, it was very surreal.

            Sinister looking isn't it!

            I'd paint it in splinter camo and add swastikas!! Whaaaa!!!

              funny you should say that......theres a what if ive always wanted to do

              AMT did the trade federation tank from episode 1........ive done it and it was a nice kit but id love to get another cos the hatch on top is just right for a 1/35 tank commander figure.......german 3 colour camo.. ...scurzen armour on the turret like a panzer 4

              Seen it done once and always appealed

                  i once did a pink with green spots harrier.......long whiff story about a fictional central american county asking HMG to help stop hamster poacher from the country next door so the RAF got to have a flight of harriers in a specialised camo lol

                  I also once did a ford mustang in bubblegum pink.....classic Bullitt era mustang......back then i used to frequent a long gone forum that was mainly car related and was roughly 50/50 brit/murrican

                  The yanks were calling me all sorts of names for doing this car icon in pink......could almost imagine them frothing at the mouth...then i posted a link showing hugh hefner giving playboy bunnies of the year a pink car....often a mustang.....then another showing that playboy pink was an official ford optional extra on 60s era mustangs.....oh i did smile ????
