Love the Mon Calamari!   

He should always have a word bubble that says.... 'It's a Trap!"

Every time I see threads about Legion I get dangerously close to buying it.......

It's a good ruleset!  As I mentioned earlier I hadn't really intended on using it but it's most enjoyable!

Here's a new WIP scratch build.  A smaller shuttle for Palpatine and his Crimson Guard.  I think I'm going to try lighting this one.

Wow! That's a great scratch build! How do you get such clean lines on your
scratch builds. Anything I try always ends up looking rough.

Thanks!

It's really easy!  Just score it then bend it until you get a very satisfying POP!

A very nice model.
I'd make on suggestion. If your going to light the model try defusing the light as they can over power the model if they're too bright. If you've no electric fu. Isn't great then a light coat of mat varnish can do the job ( worth experimenting with first.)
( It's the short cut I use rather than having to get the electricians to certify any re wiring .(( only if the led's are cold led's)) because that really buggers up deadlines.)

Great advice!  I was planning on drilling some holes in the hull, covering with tape than putting on a few coats of laquer.  After you take the tape off you can paint over it as normal.  You can't see anything at all untill you turn on the light then it shines through the thin layer of paint.  Looks REALY cool and will definitely dumb down that harshness as you suggest!:)
