Title: New Tie Interceptor Model Build
Post by: jedijeff on July 02, 2012, 01:40:30 PM
I am going to start on my Second Model build. I am going to do a Snap Tie Interceptor from MPC ERTL that was put out years ago and I had sitting on my shelf. It is another practice model for me as I plan on ordering some Fine Mold Tie Fighters and want some practice before I do those. This morning I started on it by breaking it apart. This one looks like I will have to do some masking and putty work for gaps, so will be good practice.

Have fun! I definitely want to do a Tie model  sometime. Looks like you're well set up!

Thanks Chris, I think it will be fun. I like to make sure I have everything setup, sometimes I go to overboard on it though, as I don't like starting on things before everything is setup, but I am getting better :)

Very cool, Jeff! The Fine Molds kits I hear are awesome. This is one of ERTL's best efforts, should turn out great.

I really need to get this finished, as my Fine Molds Tie Fighters came in today. I need to stop buying and start building. Also picked up a Lost in Space Model on the weekend as well.
