It’s too bad Luke didn’t have more time to play around in the T-16, but X-wings are much better anyway. This is the Fantastic Plastic 1/72 Skyhopper, built without modification. The parts fit together well, although there were a number of bubbles in the casting. It was painted with Tamiya acrylics, with light weathering. The base is a stained pine plaque with a brass rod for support.
