This was a fun kit as it has such nice angles and looks so sleek. I remember almost finishing the basic construction and painting the very first day I got it. I decided to not go with my usual Flat Light Aircraft Gray, and used Flat White. I feel this made it look more authentic, and it made the weathering stand out better. I used a nice red custom mixture to match some shots of A-Wings from the Battle Of Endor. I also painted some random panels different colors to go with typical Star wars motif. A lot of dark weathering went onto this ship using my airbrush. Unfortunately, the pilot on the inside wasn't the best looking thing in the world so I just made do with what I had and painted him to look as good as possible. This kit cost me around $5 on eBay.
