Model Showcase: Fine Molds TIE Fighter (1/48 scale)


This was a fairly fun kit to put together. Fine Molds did a fantastic job making the pieces fit together in a logical fashion, minimizing work after the fact. 

While the colors aren't screen accurate, the box had what is almost a "white metal" finish on it, and it struck me as cool looking.  Since this was going to be displayed as a stand alone, I sacrificed accuracy for cool factor.  I like how the finish came out.  I also attempted the very slightest iridescent effect on the solar panel wings, which didn't show up so great in the shots, but its a very subtle effect anyways.
