Hobby: Xiphon Assembled

The Xiphon has taken shape now. The build was relatively straight forward, although the wings and some of the thinner bits did require a touch of the hair dryer to straighten out. Most of the build was pretty easy and everything slotted together much as expected.


I've used several good scoops of liquid green stuff as can be seen in the image above. The tail fin especially had a poor fit to the main fuselage and I couldn't get it perfect, so the green stuff came to the rescue. The sides of the cockpit also were slightly (as in barely noticeable) warped even after heating so the green stuff there is filling in only for my own visual benefit (because I would know even if everyone else didn't). This is going to be primed with lead belcher, before being painted in Alpha Legion colours. I will leave the pilot until last to put into place.
