[MOD] 75172 Y-wing Starfighter

[XCool]

Got the latest Y-wing recently, but didn't really like the Sand Blue, so I thought I'd modify mine using parts from 9495 and change the color to light bluish gray. 

Here's how it looks overall. 

 

But I got a little troubled with the stickers on the nacelles, so I thought I'd copy the build from 7658.

Wow, that's pretty good. Personally I don't mind the sand blue but I like how you fixed up the side of the y-wing cockpit and got rid of the grey pieces.

Those pieces are from 9495. There's a fine greyish line for the sides of the cockpit, but I don't think it warrants putting an entire grey slope for it, making it half white and half grey. Also, if you compare with 9495, the grey pieces are at the bottom, while 75172 has it at the top.

Added official photos of 9495 and 75172.

I know, confusing right??? I noticed it when I picked up this set then started to look at the images of the previous version....

I first noticed it when a mate build his, and I thought, hey, that wasn't in the right spot, until I checked the photo on the box.
