My MPC builds
Posted by scigs30 on Saturday, April 16, 2016 4:06 PM

I used to build these kits when I was a kid and was lucky to aquire old MPC Star Wars kits for cheap.  I still have more to build but this is where I am so far.  These builds are kept simple with few tools and built out of the box.  Some kits are not painted using the original kit mold color with details painted with Testors square bottles all hand brushed.

They look good! It's nice to do some simple and quick builds, looking forward to more.

Other than the horrible lack of true detail on the X-wing, and the C-3PO having a horribly misshapened head, and body, as well as Darth Vader it's good to see these again especially without a lot of paint. Thanks for memories! I hope to get the ones that I starting a LONG time ago built and finished someday.

Yeah, it's neat to see those again, thanks for posting! I don't have much left from my youth, I busted most of them down for spare parts. Course my stuff didn't look that good either...
