Won't be long and you'll be splashing paint on it..

Looking good Flint!
RE: Colonial Viper - JAWS - 08-05-2014
Don't forget the C Channel that goes around the rockets. A few pieces spread out. Look at the reference.

I wondered why you included that with the kit
RE: Colonial Viper - JAWS - 08-06-2014
Yeah most people miss those.
There are also a couple of bits that go in the intakes.
The little tank tread & another bit I just realised I have not added.
RE: Colonial Viper - JAWS - 08-06-2014
Also the guns have tube in support so can be hollow if cut right.
RE: Colonial Viper - JAWS - 08-06-2014
Hey did you not get the clear cockpit & pilot?
RE: Colonial Viper - 3phase - 08-06-2014
I did on mine
RE: Colonial Viper - boba flint - 08-07-2014
I got the clear pilot, but not the cockpit. That's ok. I decided to not use either one.
RE: Colonial Viper - JAWS - 08-07-2014
Going studio accurate ay mate.
That's the ticket.

You got it!
Any suggestions for the base color? I read Sazlo used Krylon pewter grey.
RE: Colonial Viper - wizardofthenorth - 08-16-2014
I used the Kyrlon fusion Pewter Gray myself. Look for 'TOS Viper' in the built section.
I also did some comparisons to 'deck tan' which was also pretty good, but as the name of the paint suggests, I felt it was just a hint less gray than I liked.
RE: Colonial Viper - JAWS - 08-16-2014
Any updates?
Pictures please!
RE: Colonial Viper - Cylon-Knight - 08-17-2014
Wow! That kit is amazing. Can't wait to see more progress.
RE: Colonial Viper - boba flint - 08-17-2014
Here's a quick iphone pic. Base color applied. Looks darker in this pic than it really is.

Niiice.
Looks sharp.
That casting looks good!
Lol....
RE: Colonial Viper - boba flint - 08-31-2014
Making some progress. Started the paint chipping and will start weathering today.
