Today I want to introduce you my latest Hasbro conversion project: X-WING FIGHTER



I've started this conversion in december 2013. For this conversion I will use some "original" parts from a studio scale model kit.
I'll try to finish this model until May 2014 because at the 17th of May is the "REBEL CON IV" convention in Gelsenkirchen (Germany)
where I want to show this and other of my Hasbro conversions  ;)

And here some pictures (more here: http://maxx-replicas.jimdo.com/coming-soon-w-i-p/x-wing-fighter/ ) of the current state of the conversion:












more soon...

Everytime I check your updates I'm always gobbed smacked by the amount of detail you add to these toys to make them so realistic.

Sensational work, even in these early stages. I'll definitely keep a close eye on this project, since the X-Wing is very dear to me and I have plans for a dio with one myself.
