TIE fighter

Description

The defender of the empire and scourge to x-wings everywhere, the TIE (twin ion engines) fighter was developed and produced for the empires needs by Sienar Fleet Systems. Produced in mass for its reliability and maneuverability (not durability) this made the tie a great fast attack and scout craft. While weak on their own, an attack squadron (12 tie's) makes for a formidable enemy. The Imperials used so many that they came to be considered symbols of the Empire and its might.

Here is my mostly finished 1/72 Bandai TIE fighter. After a buddy of mine sent me this link www.youtube.com/watch?v=PN_CP4… I couldn’t resist and I had to build this kit up. Built outta the box (still needs its decals) this kit was really fun and easy to put toghter. I didn’t have an overwhelming need to have it be movie accurate so it’s painted up in a few different German grays and a light gray/blue wash. Tons of fun gimmicks and a neatly detailed interior (sorry I forgot to get shots of that) and it even comes with some laser beams and cool base (that will connect to my x-wing base) anyways it was a nice side project from the death rig(that i am still pounding away at lol)
overall I had tons of fun and would highly recommend this kit to anyone.

As always questions, comments and suggestions welcome.
