Bandai 1/72 TIE Striker
Posted by silentbob33 on Sunday, May 5, 2019 3:26 PM

Next on the bench is Bandai's TIE Striker from Rogue One.  I'm building it for Bish's Star Wars Group Build, but figured I'd share it here for those of you that aren't following along there.  I'm just getting started with it and haven't done much except for put a little bit of paint on the pilot.  I'll show another pic of him once he's all done.

I finished the pilot.  Little bit of detail painting, Future for the gloss areas, and the decals on the helmet.

I finally got around to finishing the cockpit, and there really wasn't a whole lot to it.  I painted it in Panzer Gray and dry brushed with RLM 75. Gloss, decals, then flat.

I finished the main construction on the fuselage (I guess that's what you'd call it?).

I was able to get everything painted, sealed with a gloss coat and the 5 decals put on.  I'm not overly happy with the color, but I don't think it looks too bad.

Well, I wrapped that one up quicker than I thought.  This is a great kit, detail and fit are awesome.  I'm glad I have more Bandai kits in the stash.
