Star Wars X Wing Fighter

X Wing Fighter from Revell Painted with Weathering Theme

X Wing Fighter from the movie

The Star Wars X Wing Fighter model from Revell. The model was purchased from Amazon.com. It was easy to fix given its snap tite system between various components. I applied some Tamiya paint on the model with the intention to create weathering effect on a spacecraft.

Star War movie had used scale spacecraft models and weathering effect on their X wing fighters. They were used on a pitch black starry background.

I am quite pleased with the completed model. It is one of the iconic spacecraft from my childhood in the 70s. The other significant spacecraft is the battlestar galactica humans fighter.
