My Star Destroyer arrived today. Now I'm motivated to finish some other stuff by end of year.

Can't wait. Still keeping my eyes peeled for a falcon.  I really liked that detail kit that Rob posted for any Ertl kit. That seems like a great alternative to the fine molds kit. Thanks Rob for the lead.

Bish,

 you must be using the force.   just last week (without knowing about this thread at all) I decided I would do one of my star wars kits from my stash, Ooooooo  freaky!  I have a MPC A-wing I want to do.  I want to light the cockpit as well as the engines.  Should be fun.  The pit will need alot of work as its pretty barbaric.

Bakster, there's always plenty of room. Look out for the build thread at the end of Nov.

John, nothing to do with me, honest. Will be nice to see that A-Wing, that's one kit I never got.

Ken, that's good news, but remember the GB runs all the way to Dec so lots of time.

Here is a very valuable link for anyone wanting to detail a Star Wars model. As an aside, there are a lot of neat "Easter eggs" in these detail photos; various model pieces parts. In one photo, I saw the old Tamiya M41 turret among others.

Nice link Rob. I do have a book called Star Wars Chronicles which has lots of pics of the models used in the first 3  movies.

Eagle, steady on there, no jumping the gun Wink

I stuffed the X-Wing into a closet and covered it with some blankets. If it's on a shelf and I can see it, I'll work on it. Out of sight, out of mind. :)

Alright, I've got the 1/48 Fine Molds X-wing and and MPC Star Destroyer. I'm going to attempt to build both for this GB. I going to pull the trigger on some resin pieces for the Star Destroyer, and a lighting kit for the x-wing, But I'm waiting for some of that green stuff to grow on one of my trees first!

I will be putting up the build thread for this next weekend. I will go through the feeler and take entries from there and add to the roster. Please let you know if you change your mind on your entry. And of course, entry's can be added and changed once the GB is up and running.

That sounds awesome, how about building the x-wing right after Luke Skywalker lifts it out of the swamp with Yoda?  With the sludge leaking off it and etc.!
