1/110 Revell Imperial Tie Fighter, Star Wars A New Hope.

[BradG]

Another pretty simple little model that I've built after my little adventure to the ICU last year. It's well detailed, has less than 20 parts and fits perfectly. The downside is the stand is a little flimsy for the weight of the model, so I mounted it sideways to stop it leaning to one side. I've read a lot of opinions on the colour of Star Wars fighters and it seems that in the first movie, they were painted a light grey or even off white, where as in the latter two original movies, the Tie Fighters were a more blue-grey. Wanting an OG Tie, I went with Gunze 51, a very light grey. A black wash was used to pop out the detail over this. This is a great little kit for about 20 bucks.
