Title: Anakin Starfighter
Post by: draken35 on December 04, 2016, 05:02:45 PM

This is a little kit with 21 parts only.

Th econcept of the kit is quite intriguing for me due to the fact that it's almoste impossible to paint the kit when fully assembled...

So weird that I've decided to begin it...

What is really disappointing is... the hands of Anakin! There are horrible... So I removed them and used instead the hands of a Preiser German soldier at 1/72 scale. Looks better...

I've also glued some elements and, as you can see, fitting is not perfect and filler will be needed

Project definitively abandoned. That "starfighter" is more a toy than a kit and have defaults that were possibly correctible but that was bothering me...
So I finished to build it quickly and gived it to one of my grandsons as a toy...

My next Star Wars project will be more serious (Bandai or RetroSF)
