    Star Wars - Tie Interceptor by Loenf

    Frames cut and mounted. Inner parts prepared and mounted. (I didn't find any cardboard with 2.5mm thickness, so I had to improvise.)

    So next wings outside: Used 2,5 mm cardstock for wingparts and 1mm for details. Edges will have to be painted. Frames: Cut out inner parts. Glue to the black sheet. Cut out.

    I know what you mean. Should be mounted a little bit lower. As everything is glued I will not change this time. But will consider next time. Thx for the hint. Thx for the info.

    Star Wars - Tie Interceptor by Loenf

    Thx. Now cockpit window 2nd try. I have not separated the transparent parts but cut them out as one part. Then I have connected the parts from the inside with scotch tape. Then attached the frames, removed the tapes and mounted on the cockpit. Now only the wings are left.

    Star Wars - Tie Interceptor by Loenf

    Thx. The Sphere is not perfect but ok. The cockpit window I will have to redo. Not good at all. Rest so far ok for me. Top of cockpit built with additional part. @ sphere. I think Zathros mentioned the trick of waterforming. I tried once but I failed. This is for sure a way to get spheres...

    Sidewalls and cockpit front …..not sure if it is correct to split all the clear parts….I will see whether it works. Oh 60% is not very much. I am glad that you have learned to deal with it. Your builds are perfect, despite your handicap.

    Star Wars - Tie Interceptor by Loenf

    Hello all, my next project the Tie Interceptor. There are a few models and I chose the version of Loenf. The model has a cockpit as well as many details.

    Star Wars U-Wing building

    To attach the parts correctly, I test them on the wing. (right/left or top/bottom) Before finalizing, I would make one for trial to get a feel for the assembly. Then cover the panels with the enclosed strip.

    Star Wars U-Wing building

    Use as much middle parts as needed to reach the same hight as the wings have, to ensure that this part can be slipped over. For one part I used 3 middle parts (C), 4 parts (B) and four parts (A). By assembling make sure that the parts are used correctly as the sides of the triangle are not...

    It took a while to finalize the engines. This is also the moment to finalize the formers. Next will be the parts which connect the engines to the hull.
