Me and my wife were away for a week and I decided to bring with me a kit, inspired by Remco who tend to do the same, while on vacation.
What would be a better choice, than a Bandai ! No need for glue and instead of decals, stickers can be used etc etc.
This was my first Bandai kit ever and it truly was really a joy to build.
Like a Kinder surprise egg made for adults!
The build has started..
Cockpit
"decaling" time.. I used the vinyl stickers which were surprisingly thin and after some rubbing, the even settled pretty good on the surface.
And there we have, the X-Wing in it's full glory !

Nice work!
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!"..

Those Bandai Star Wars kits are really great little refresher builds. That looks really good Kari.

Neat lil kit. Never saw one with stickers on a snap kit.

Very nice! I've build two X-wings, a Y-Wing and the AT-ST.
