Okay...this is out of the norm...but when I seen this Star Wars vehicle...at first I seen a Hurricane in the mix...but then I decided to go with a Python Pattern.

I cut the missile tabs off an old rattler shell...and with the aid of green stuff putty applied the tabs to the undercarriage cage....to put some added arsenal to it:

I also removed the droid...and added a gun (I believe of some chap mei origin) in its place...it rotates above the inner wing placement and works well. I haven't made a pilot yet...but plan on that. I have an extra 25th AVAC that may fill the job...but time will tell.

As always....critiques and comments welcome.

Sigh.... utter crap my friend. Why do you even try ?....and apparently wherever you got those decals they used a crayon. ;-)

Not a Star Wars fan but your paint job and add ons are phenominal ! I'm surprised you actually went with Hasbro Python Patrol colors instead of your usually environment themed colors.
Great job !

Thanks PF!!

I know....as well as others...I'm not a fan of the maroon...but I figured I would give it a shot for once...and after seeing the colors...I'm shocked to say...I enjoyed it.

Thanks for your feedback!!

thats a fun toy, and with all the clones being dead and all, someone needs to fly it.

Now you're going to go and give Hasbro ideas for more repaints. BUT I'd buy that in a heartbeat. :-D

I really love this. Does not have a SW vibe to it, it kinda makes me think of a updated Night Adder, and Wild Weasle using it for a bit.

8-O 8-O 8-O Wow!! That looks totally kick ass!! VERY IMPRESSIVE!! You did an excellent job all around on this. The pattern looks great and your balance between patterned surfaces and black surfaces is perfect. I must say, that is something I wouldnt mind owning either!!

Is that your first python vehicle? If you have done more I would love to see them.

Click on the customs link on his name, he's got some in the gallery though I know he has done more. Usually non-traditional colors, but ones that would match the environment better.

is that really paint? it almost looks like the type of "stickers" used on vehicle wraps. and yeah, looks much better than the usual vehicle.
