In honor of May the Fourth, I started on this long planned project yesterday, Vader's flight trio of his Advanced TIE and his two wingmen's standard TIE Fighters
I'll be using these kits, while not identical in scale, they are pretty dang close...
I started yesterday giving a base coat of dark gray on the interior surfaces
although I will confess that I am not happy with the color that I used as it dried much darker than what I needed, so a repaint is in order sometime soon...

Well, now…this will be fun.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Re: Vader Flight
Thanks guys! This should be fun. The TIEs come with a stand... the only real challenge that I foresee here will be to get Vader's fighter mounted between and ahead of them.

Re: Vader Flight
Thanks Stuart! I’d been wanting to do this for awhile…
