  1. Looks great - really like that. Top job.
  2. Black curved pieces look like http://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=6191#T=S&C=11&O={"color":"11","ss":"UK"}
  3. Smashing - very helpful sets of pics - when I get round to opening mine I'll defo follow this mod. No need for the shame - little pieces off colour drive me nuts too!
  4. Nice work, looking good. Now all Palpatine needs is a little ejection flap to dispose of any failing minions given he is at the back....
  5. Excellent job - looks really effective and very neat.
  6. Hi, you can get the rollcage (47758) in white, not many knocking about though, but I agree it would look better in the white.
  7. Ah well, I can see why you felt it was worth a punt though...
  8. Hi KD, I did mine with Satin White PlastiKote - looks good after a good base coat (grey) and about 3 layers of white. Any more and I figured it would start to fill up the connection + (but you could sacrifice a connector part I guess if it needed more coats). The topic with the pics is at http://www.eurobrick...hl=y-wing&st=25 - at that point it had only the base coat and one of white, so is a little off as you can see in my pics, after the third coat was applied it looked pretty much spot on. However, some drooping later, I decided to replace them with the wheel 2903 which looks good but is lighter (http://www.bricklink...={"color":"1"}) I used the same paints in White and Red on building the MOC A-Wing UCS, and that looks fine 15 months later - even after some of the parts where removed and put back on a couple of times post a few tweaks. The main difference is the resultant texture, being slightly grainy on the red, less so on the white - but you could always try the KlearKote finish on top and see what that does.
  9. That is huge - fab job taking this on via BL....only 16 years before I can move the kids out and turn one of their rooms into my BL'cave...
  10. Looks good - I agree the 1x10 slopes are nicer looking if you are able to adjust the side slopes as well.
  11. Wow, once again you build a fantastic ship - I love this 'little' chap - looks like its flown straight out of the film....brilliant!
  12. Love Y-wings so this is great, I like the side on shape of the cockpit.
  13. Both are good, but i'd take the top one - I prefer the larger barrel being the same colour grey, and have the darker grey at the end of the nozzle. Plus it shows off the red bar element better (I can see it catching the light easier when looking at different angles).
  14. Looks great. I can't wait to see your Squadrons worth!
  15. This looks cracking - very true to the original design - top job.
  16. Looks great, the cockpit is excellent and I really think the effort spent on it is justified - fab job.
  17. Looks cool - doubt you could get the bricks in real life but it looks very Desert Storm...
  18. Yes thats a good shout if your stuck with the HMTL guide only....cant wait to see your updates - its an excuse to build another one!
  19. I built my one of your T47s via LDD (and its so so much better that the official lego one I've had to put that one back in the box to hide it away), but I'm used to the funny way LDD works - I find that if you get some floating parts either flick forwards to see where they join up later in the build (so park them until later) or exit and re-do the building guide - sometimes a second or third generated build guide works better than the first one. I think experience of LDD building helps a lot.
  20. So want to have one of these - probably have to be on the 2017 build list....
  21. For me anything but studshooters taking over everyset - I appreciate for kids the studshooters can be fun, but so long as blasters/pistols remain available then I'm ok, I'm less bothered about more accurate weapons as that's not really what Lego is about - there are third party suppliers to cover that level of detail.
