Wow! That is really awesome! If I'd painted that, I'd be really down about having to part with it. I guess knowing up front that it is a commission helps with that, huh?

Looks better than in the movie! The weathered orange sections are awesome.

Thanks mate!

But yeah, it can still be pretty hard to part with something, especially after spending so much time and effort on it but that's just how it goes. This client also had commissioned Luke's X-wing at the same time and luckily for me, I was able to take them to my local scale modeling club meeting to show them off before they were sent away to their new home.

All said, I've done seven of these Bandai models as commissions (with another three on my workbench right now) and it's been hard to let each of them go!
