Just finished this up for a Wonderfest sales display. It's a nice kit with no notable issues impeding building. Made use of the AK Interactive products to do the streaking. Pics and info here:

Cool. Very nicely done. Looks like there was some fairly tricky/tedious masking required....came out very clean.

Did you send this over to WF, or are you currently there accompanying it?

I assume this is from Star Wars? (Forgive my ignorance....I only saw the first two films,way back when they were first released.)

Thanks Marc,

This is for the Starship Modeler sales table at Wonderfest where the kit will first go on sale. I'm not going to go this year, but plan to make a showing next year.

This ship was seen in the opening of SW Ep 1 The Phantom Menace... it delivers Obi Wan and Quigon Gin, then a few minutes later gets blown-up in the hangar. There's an armed version apparently that appears in the Clone Wars toon as well. It's white with red marks and has some gun turrets on the top.

The masking was quite tedious.  :P
