Started on some weathering........i`ve stressed the decals using some fine micro sponge to take away the shine and give a more faded look and allow the high spots to be revealed giving it a more worn look, i`ve also started doing some washes here and there on the engine parts etc......also gave the base a blast of steel and then a wash over the top, this is still WIP at the mo but i don`t think there is really much more i can do with it.
More soon

You're capturing just the right look, it could be a studio model!

The more prominent panellines and pinwash look just amazing on the base, if it was mine my friend I'd go for the same look on the X-wing and I let everything pop. It's in the best hands possible so it will look ehrm...stellar !

Don't forget some scratches and dents from bumping into badly parked satelites

Boots, this looks superb! Great depiction of one of the sexiest fighters in the series.

Thank you fellas A bit more weathering, used a wash to bring out the panel lines then cleaned it back...........went a bit heavier on the engine areas, still got a bit more to add but not far off the finish line now..
Not weathered this kind of thing before so it`s a bit trial and error..
More soon

That's spot on how I it settled in my mind...now it has even more body with the panellines a tad heavier.ππ€©
