Something new to me: In the box Instructions The parts are all coloured and the kit comes with a small section of the Death Star. With that in mind, I have glossed the part and will give it a wash with the oil starship filth. From there I will decide how to proceed.

That is magnificent! I built one of those way back and took a couple third place awards for it too. Mine was an earlier kit that did not include the Death Star base though.

I actually prefer this to the X-wing although both are very cool craft. Another excellent, and fast, build matey.

Yes, this does look awesome! I do love the look of the Y-Wing--a heavy duty, hard-hitting bomber platform.
