Starfighters (aka X-Wing) Project : 4/2 asteroids finished

[rumacara]

The asteroids are great.

[Elk101]

Yeah those asteroids really work well. I'll bet you finish your base before I finish mine!

[Silent Invader]

Thanks chaps 

I'll bet you finish your base before I finish mine!

Bet I don't!

If you'll excuse the late-night fat-finger phone-screen drawing and writing, I have given done thought to what might go where .....

.... though I am far from committed . 

Well, you should be....!

Couple of suggestions, keep the power station as far away from other stuff as you feasibly can (maybe buried in the yellow bit to the top right) and put the docking gantry gun over the top of it instead of to the side. Missiles might be better on top of either the control tower or the hanger.

Paul, Paul, Paul, Paul, Paul....... I am watching you.....

Excellent suggestions James, thank you kindly. I'm thinking that each element might have its own stats, and resulting consequences if targeted, etc. 

[OSHIROmodels]

Each section having stats would work much better. You'll need a shield generator as well 

cheers

[Silent Invader]

Sorry for belated reply but that's appreciated James. I shall adjust accordingly.

On other matters ...

My Most Wanted box arrived today (£21 including delivery - a result as prices just seem to have gone up across the board presumably because retailers are about to get freshly priced stock?).

Of all the ships I've got, the Y Wing (and also the Kihraxz) appear out of scale as they seemingly have much smaller cockpits. I really like both ships but it annoys me so I'm tempted to make a mod or two to bring them more into line.

[Elk101]

Most Wanted is a nice set. I've seen it on eBay for £50! If you're after a Hound's Tooth for your Scum the best place I found was Wordery for £23.

I have managed to go two weeks without buying a new ship.

I've been getting the Micro Machines sets from Tescos and Sainsburys and consequently saving myself a fortune

I must be doing well as I have gone even longer AND played a couple of games on Sunday and have another tomorrow,
I think that I am over the addiction........

I picked up a pack of those for the the boy with the idea that if he has his own he won't touch mine (yeah, I know, it probably makes him more likely!). Someone sat on the TIE and broke it.

[Silent Invader]

Oh dear 

Well I'm set for the time being with 11 ships plus I'll get the Misthunter when it comes out.

I also contemplated a Shuttle but I think I'll throw one together from bitz.

Having watched a chunk of Star Wars Rebels prior to it being removed from Sky I rather fancy picking up the Ghost.  The shuttle does look great. I'm not sure my skills stretch to making my own though.

You guys are doing a great job on those bases and asteroids.
If you think you are addict to x-wings what can i say:
