X-WING (with movable wings & partial interior intention of the technology).

Walter2 · Jun 12, 2024

Start as promised the model of an X-WING with movable wings and an interior view of the plane, of course with a build report.
I will start with the wings, namely the outer edges at the front (18 parts), which are very challenging to cut out. The parts are glued together in a specific order according to the numbers.

Rhaven Blaack · Jun 12, 2024

You are off to a great start! I am looking forward to seeing how this turns out.
If I may ask, who is the designer of the template?

and as the actor says that, GL is thinking 'I wrote BEACON 1, but that works too'

The beginning of the "Michelin Star Wars."

The first part - the front - of the wing is finished. It took me some time to realise how the individual parts are distributed among each other (once on top, then underneath, etc.). It is important that the inner white ring must NOT be glued because of the movement! I hope I have designed the pictures so that you can recognise which part is glued on at the bottom or top with the respective numbers. The important thing is to cut out exactly and glue carefully, if necessary touch up the edges of the centre part with a felt-tip pen.
Next comes the rear part...

the back of the sash ready for gluing

Thats a lot of cutting.

Revell-Fan · Jun 19, 2024

Looks like blades of a meat grinder. :biggrin:

Rear side and wing shaft finished. The next step is to assemble the motor frame.

That is looking great.

This is progressing nicely!
