Following along! A cool thing I did with my standard TIE was add a sheet of .005" clear sheet between the solar arrays and the outer structural portion. Gives it a cool look.

that is a lot of decals tho... wow! Did you get the standing Vader with the Tie Advanced as well? I noticed it's missing from the Revell Master Series rebox.

Hi Markus, yes there's a standing Vader included. As I needed to start the Tie Advanced again due to glueing the Ion Engines on upside down, I've now got two!

Calling these ones done. Fun building three at a time as there was so many similar parts to make it easy to do. Usual nightmare with FIne Molds decals but as they were hidden away in the cockpit it wasn't a showstopper. My fault with the X1 Advanced Ion Engines but another kit was easily found to "fix" the issue and I've ended up with three lovely Tie fighters. Very happy with the way the solar collectors on the wings worked out, the mix of Gloss Black & Metallic Blue looks really good, especially on the Standard Tie.
Thanks for the likes and those that followed along. Hope you enjoyed it 👍

They came out nicely. Very cool trio! And those solar arrays do look great for this scale!
