Episode Thirty Seven

Landing gears are a pain in the ass.

Yup. Okay, so I underestimated the original x-wing and have problems with my Redwing. The landing gears for the original X-Wing strangely comes out of the two bottom wing engines. So how do those turbines work with the landing gear in em? I decided to just leave the rear landing gear outside and is tucked under the wings like a bird's legs. And I think it'll ad to the mechanical-armored-tank-look of the Redwing. This thing now has a whole lot more weapons and some concealed gadgets. I'm sketching the designs before I make em, so here in this update you can see some modifications to the nose and landing gear. The front landing gear will retract into the nose as in the bottom picture. I promise, this thing will only get better with every complete orbit of saturn around the sun. Okay whatever, now I'll have to get back to the hangar to work on this flying beast.

BTW I bought the 30th anniversary Darth Vader with coin number 01. The figure is of good quality sculpt but has damages. Even the coin was scratchy. So if you buy one, be prepared.

May the Force be with us all.
