Anakin's starfighter from Episode III
« on: May 18, 2010, 08:00:47 PM »
Hello everybody, I'm from Campeche, Mexico, I love to collect clonetroopers and troopers from the original saga, I like to do some changes trying to make them look more realistic, I'm a begginer in the world of the customs, I had read about some modelism techniques like weathering, dry brush, wash and stuff like that, I want to show you some of my work with this ship, I will show more of my customs to my troopers in another post, if you have tips or better ideas to improve my customs, they are welcome.

First and foremost, welcome to the Shipyards!  That weathering looks very nice on your starfighter.  I can't wait to see more from you already!

Welcome to the Yards! Your ship looks great! Nice job on the weathering you stopped at just the right amount. I also like the rust details in some areas. Can't wait to see more.

Thanks everybody for your comments, of course I'll be uploading more pics, most of my customs are weathering, well, with this starfighter, I did some Dremel on the edges where the panels are joint to let them open a little more wide, I have an ARC 170, weathered too, I'll be uploading pics of this very soon.

Hey DocOutlands, claro que hablo español, de donde eres tu?

Hello guys,

as I said, here are a few more pics of the starfighter, from the engines, and the wings with panels opened.
