      Done! The force awakens new Tie fighter. created with only a few reference images available online, mostly from movie trailer. lots of guesses and artistic license. Modeled with SU and rendered with Thea Render

          42mb, needs a clean up, should be around 36mb

          edit, purged to 31MB, running cleanup now.

            that's make a killer project for substance painter.

            probably a nightmare to uv map though.

            i love the interior shot. great detailing

                Very nice, is there any detailing on the white panels? I have not found many great references yet! I am hoping to start the new xwing before the film comes out.

                Check this out for some cool details of the old version (bottom of thread): http://www.modelermagic.com/?p=71902

                  Very cool link, I'd love to make a real model. That was the 2nd gen Tie, I modeled one a few years ago.

                  I have found no detail on the white panels, one site had slats and another had hexagons, I'm somewhere between. May be future solar panels I dunno.

                    I always thought that they would restrict the view of the pilot a lot, they must have some future crazy helmet that can link with cameras on the outside of the panels.

                    One day hopefully I live somewhere with space to build anything, don't fancy getting any tools on my tiny balcony!

                      @Sole - IMHO this is an excellent model. I wish I could to things like this but you have seen some of my work 😳 and you know I cannot even come close.

                          Fricken awesome work, Solo!

                          Liam, I don't think the wings restrict the view so much as the cockpit window.
