I got a bit distracted looking for a particular bit for the crane and stumbled on a Revell kit of Slave One. Always thought of doing it as a standard Firespray class but unfortunately there’s a substantial part of the hull missing...
So, not to be deterred I’m going to make it into a Firespray XL
It’s nicknamed ‘The Coffin’, hopefully for obvious reasons
It’s apparently 1:160 which is close enough to fit with the 1:144 fighters I’ve got.
The grey stuff is filler and once it’s been sanded off I’ll scribe the hull plates and add some gubbins. The cockpit will be in the same place as the original but it’ll be angular instead.
