Awesome! I like the killmarks on the side too, nice touch!
You should check out the Bandai kits if you get the chance, they're wonderful.

Very nice. It does look to be excellent value for the price and you've given it a paintjob worthy of a display piece.
Excellent.

Yep, the 'pocket easykit' one. Super-simple to assemble, but still has plenty of detail.
On further inspection seems there are two versions, a boxed version and this one, which has a foil outer wrapper.Not sure what the difference is beyond that, though.

TheEyeOfNight- I swear, this thread is 70% smack talk, 20% RP organization, and 10% butt jokes
TheEyeOfNight- "Ordo Xenos reports that the Necrons have attained democracy, kamikaze tendencies, and nuclear fission. It's all tits up, sir."
Space Marine flyers are shaped for the greatest possible air resistance so that the air may never defeat the SPACE MARINES!
Sternguard though, those guys are all about kicking ass. They'd chew bubble gum as well, but bubble gum is heretical. Only tau chew gum

Re the pocket kits
The pocket kits are normally smaller( so they can fit into a pocket maybe....) and less detailed than the normal easyclip kits.

Fantastic! I see he's a member of the 181st Fighter Wing, which is pretty cool.
I'm enjoying your Star Wars models and it makes me happy to see someone other than myself on Dakka painting them!

Honestly had no idea about the significance of the markings, I just copied a scheme/design that looked cool!

The 181st Fighter Wing was from X-Wing Rogue Squadron comic series and it was lead by perhaps the Empire's finest fighter ace, Soontir Fel:
