Inspired by the TIEs from Star Wars Rebels (The Call - S02E15), I decided to modify Revell's TIE kit (03605). Using a hacksaw, vise and files I managed to cut out the distinctive notch in the stabilisers. This was harder than you might expect. Hats off to Revell, they used robust plastic in this one.

I don't own an airbrush so brush painted the whole thing with Revell enamels. This is why I've missed out the Mining Guild emblem on the upper stabilisers, I just don't have the dexterity to free paint that. As for a few other details, I omitted them due to laziness. I did this on a whim after all.

Sadly the provided cockpit decal was too small(!) so this has also been omitted. Unusual, given that the other TIE models I've built have had no such issue.

Hope this amuses any Star Wars fans amongst us.
