THAT´S THE PICTURE I WANTED! And it looks very nice.
This ship is becoming better and better.
With the guns aboard it start to look bad as well as cool.
Does it fit a mini-fig now  ;)

can't you replace these bricks below the canopy with panels? after all, the old x wing was also just 4 wide
i'd also use 1 x 6 grey slopes instead of the old slopes at the front.
do you have the printed black cilinder: http://www.bricklink...asp?P=30361px3; i'd use that instead of black cilinder on your engine.

This ship is much better than the first version ! I think the addition of weaponery gives him all what he needed  :) I like the fact that this ship looks like our actual planes in some ways  :)

[xwingyoda]

Thanks Jipay!!!!! It was my intention ;)

My future one will be kind of an old school type that is inspired by the SR 71A ;)  Huge body, small wings, majority of black parts and some chrome ;)

Guys, the gallery has been updated - version 2 is up!!!!

check it here: http://www.brickshel...ry.cgi?f=129495

Enjoy ;)

Ahhh, this new version shows a nicely enhanced design!

All the added details are looking great, you achieved a much better look with changing just minor things!

I especially like the added slopes where the wings connect to the hull. The more detailed wings came out really great!

And I like the yellow front parts of your weapons! Those parts make this ship even more interesting!

Good work!  :)

[xwingyoda]

Thanks for the kind words  Apo !!!!!

Those yellow pieces are great for weapons and bases - really hope to find some at billund !!!!!

I tried to redesign it in order to fit a minifig but it looked like crap, so I reassembled it without minifig hehe !!!!!!!!
