[MOD] Red Five 9493

[FTG Prime]

Hello everyone here´s a project that took a while but it´s finally here´s Luke´s personal X-Wing based after the 9493 set

As you can see a lot has changed since it was 9493, i tried to get the most accurate color scheme to Luke´s Red Five, i couldn´t make all the details on this scale so i had to paint the blue lines on the blasters & the gray line next to the tan one on the nose.

Some of the most hevy MODs are located on the cockpit so let´s go there

This is how all started i wanted to get a nicer cockpit so i did a nicer looking seat,a place to hold the light saber and some other controls.

One of the sections i´m the most proud of is this,one of the things that always bother me on 9493 was that R2-D2 was in a vertical position instead of a horizontal one so i changed that and i heavely moded the greebles to be more accurate over all.

Here´s a look on the back, it looks way nicer and accurate IMO (i originally had a Technic disk instead of that black nob but it was really hard to lock the S-Foils so i used the black nob instead)

Here´s a look at the other side as the color scheme changes.

I also added an UCS style base for display

Here´s the X-Wing on all it´s glory.

Thanks for taking the time for reading this i hope you like this thing as much as i do.

I´ll also be happy to answer any questions you may have.

Hope you have a fantastic day !!

Great work!

I really like it. I can't believe that this comes from a 9493.

This is the best T60 I've seen dude. Just one question, is the instruction that you sell this version? Because I love the position R2-D2 is, but the images on the instructions seem to show just the R2 head. Could you let me know, because I want to build this!
