So there you go folks..

My Entry into the summer Sci-Fi Sig.

This kit and Dio were a real pleasure to do.

Thanks for this Group build..

Karl @ Making Models

[Lysus]

Well this is fantastic!

Takes a lot of courage to smash up a kit as good as a Bandai Y-Wing, and you really went for it. The wear and tear looks great and though you crashed it you didn't skimp on the details. I need to sit and look at it some more later, (kiddos aren't letting me be) but until then, AWESOME work!



ETA: Poor droid, is he the sole survivor?

[MakingModels]

Yes, the premis of the Dio is he is guarding his fallen friends waiting on a rescue that may never come...

And thx for the kind words

[Tomcat64]

Great concept superbly executed!

Really well done - absolutely cracking result

[DrSprue]

It came out really nice Karl. Love that R5D4 is looking all over the wreckage as well.

[DBMiller]

OUTSTANDING! Nothing more to be said!

[Twokidsnosleep]

Awesome
Even the droid looks perturbed at their situation

[kiwigav]

Stunning work Sir

Busting up a kit and making it look good is no easy task. I love the story here, it asks so many questions. Why did they crash? Where are they? The crew survived but died before they could be rescued? Is the guy sat by the cockpit still alive?

Top stuff

[SprueSurgeon]

Karl, superb work, the images were also exceptional in there execution, with all the detail popping out, a fantastic build that you should enter into IPMS Telford, i think its a winner, enter it Karl you have nothing to lose

[Lysus]

Congratulations on finishing!



Sorry I'm way late on this, but we're done! Yay!

I'll be contacting the judges shortly and let them get to work on all the very fine submissions this year. I hope you enjoyed yourself and look forward to seeing you again next summer!

Again, I'm sorry for the delay and if you need some explanation, you can find it here: viewtopic.php?f=11&t=23701
