Star Wars A-Wing revised - Building Thread

Absolutely outstanding @starbuck ! You have really made this model into a work of art!

I agree, follow the instructions & the build is straight forward. The guns and especially the cockpit are the trickiest parts.

And why is it we all take pictures of both versions even when the desginer did the same thing?

Love it... one of these days ...it is on the TO-DO list...

ps: you can also use the "stick" from a cotton swab ( the paper kind) to keep within the PURIST view of its got to be paper...

Thanks to all for the cheering words.
As already mentioned - a really fine model.

Thx for the tip - I will check if i find such sticks - or as Zathros said:

I believe (getting old so I forget) "Wood is unrealized paper".
Chopsticks, wooden skewers, all of these ready made shapes are great for paper modeling. I think every paper plane should have a wooden main spar. It's sad to see a model lose it's over all critical shape to moisture, where wood would have arrested the problem.
