Hi Ollois,Interesting that you "went with the greens" that was a huge decision for me when I commissioned my Y-Wing paint... I decided not to...
I also had the rust spots on the top-rear-inboard nose area removed after painting as I now believe the original ANH filming miniature was repainted (possibly for ROTJ?) with the green areas and extra rust weathering then never used before going into a private collection.
In the end my Y-Wing was painted to match the two-page image of Gold Leader in 'Sculpting a Galaxy'...
Just wanted to share my Y-Wing thoughts, in no way am I criticising your awesome replica... and it is truly awesome...
I think you've seen my Y-Wing but here it is again for comparison

Does anyone have a suggestion or preference for the styrene thickness for all the little square and triangle addons that are all over the cockpit? My initial thought is .10mm.
Here is where I'm at with identifications. Not sure if #2 was even identified on the EFX Gold Leader. Any help on these would be greatly appreciated. A big thank you to TonyR from 308 bits designing the mystery pieces in blue for me! Happy Holidays!

Thanks! It looks so obvious after you look at it. Hammer had filled me in on that part. I need to go back and update the ID's at the beginning.TIE Killer greeblie update:
Part #1 is the (modified) CB radio piece from the AMT 1/25 K-123 Cabover (Kenworth).

No, we've been searching for that one for a while also. I feel like it's a cut piece from something bigger."Hammer filled you in on that part?" Did he also tell you what #2 was? I've been searching in vain for three years for that one. If you know, please do tell.
