1:72 Scale Fine Molds TIE Fighter

Pretty simple kit, not much to say about it. But here are the WIP pictures, and then the final model.

Nice kit, have you thought about doing some weathering or maybe battle damage?

Yeah it does need more work to make it really 'kick' as a model. Painted panel lines, shading in the corners, a varing specular paint coat, etc.

What's the name of the kit?

The Tie Fighter kit is made by Fine Molds. It's expensive at some places online, but it's actually the cheapest on Ebay. Go figure...

Also, there is some weathering on the model, but it doesn't show up well in these images. The original ILM models had almost no weathering, so I tired to keep mine the same.
