[MOC] X-Wing

[Corydoras]

The X-Wing. One of the most iconic crafts in the SW universe.

I must say I really like building various Star Wars vehicles in a smaller, non-minifig scale (is it called “midi” scale?). At first it was mostly due to my limited shelf space, but I’ve grown to appreciate what you can do when you don’t have to squeeze a minifigure into the ship.

The windshield is just a sand blue wedge with some homemade stickers, but I think it looks pretty nice. The nose isn’t 100% accurate, I know, but it’s near impossible to give it the right shape AND keep it sturdy enough to still be able to swoosh the fighter around.

Not any particular Red Squadron unit, but the astromech head is Theron Nett’s (Red 10).

Sorry for their quality, especially the lack of a proper background, but the mostly white craft would look pretty bad against white and I just couldn’t find a differently colored cardboard for the photoshoot.

I absolutely love it. Really amazed at all the angles you got and how you achieved the cockpit piece.

I love it. If I ever build in this size, I will use about 90% of your design.

The only parts I would change are:

-Nose.

-Nose gear strut

-Engine thrusters

The rest is perfect Keep up the good work!
