One of the most important things added was the stand. I used MDF for the main structure and some of the panels, before cutting up an old hard cover book to use on the side panels. The length was to be 890mm by around 670mm wide, so just under a metre in length.īy the time my little, mini Revell X Wing model arrived, I had already built the structure by visually measuring and cutting the shape. It soon became clear that I was never going to get the exact detail match to the movie model, so I didn’t lose sleep over it. I printed out the plans to scale in size on normal A4, but used Adobe Illustrator to print them out tiled and joined together. Finally, this year, in July, I started prep on it and completed it in October 2016 building on available days and any other spare hours available. It isn’t physically exact to the genuine movie model, but seems visually close enough. This article shows my Star Wars X-Wing fighter model, which was scratch built using a variety of simple materials.
