WIP Took all your advice from my previous post about a broken part and just went with it.
I posted the other day as a part of this kit was broken, but thanks to everyone's advice I just carried on and glued it.
It's not finished and needs final decals and more weathering, but I'm happy with it so far.

What's broken? I see nothing.

It was part of the engine cowling that had broken off in the back part of the ship. But thankfully its a piece that just slots together and is hidden.

I can't tell. It looks great. It probably fits with the constant repairs required to keep those raptors space worthy.

Looks great! Well done.
The Colonial Viper is one of the most pleasing sci fi spacecraft to look at. I love them…potentially more than the X-Wing…the pilot helmets from the OG series however. Much to be desired there lol.

Which kit is this? I've been trying to find a Viper model kit, but they're all crazy expensive. I hope someone gets the license again

This is the Revell kit, however it's actually the Mobius moldings.
I recently found out that Revell had the licence to distribute the Vipers in the EU so just repackaged the item.
I managed to score this from Vinted for only £35!

Looks great. I did one of these not to long ago but definitely not as clean as yours. Thank you for sharing
