crowe-t Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 (edited) This is really nice! It might be a Tie that Darth Vader's second in command might pilot. Edited July 27, 2015 by crowe-t Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RedHeadKevin Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 So, in other words, it's exactly what the original Darth Vader's TIE Fighter toy was? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Oh, not at all, my friend; THIS one has red STRIPES!! ...otherwise, yes, same concept design as the original Kenner toy, but much more nicely done and displayed.

Jay Chladek Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 (edited) I really like it. It reminds me of the TIE Advanced mesh seen in the LucasArts X-Wing games, before the design got refined in TIE Fighter. I might try this kitbash myself given how excellent it looks here. I especially like the yellow accents in spots as they give it some good color contrast. Nice Work! BTW, if it were the Kenner toy, it would need the grab handle in the back with the button to fire the lasers. ;) Edited July 29, 2015 by Jay Chladek Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ST0RM Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Interesting. After looking at your work, you could have reversed the solar panels and placed the cockpit toward the rear, instead of the front. More Tie Interceptor like, but different. Nice work! -Jeff Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nice work! -Jeff I want cockpit on the front of the panels and do not want to look a like Interceptor. Edited September 10, 2015 by su27rules Quote Link to post Share on other sites
