XW148 017
By virtue of its design the X-Wing has many flat planes, and although these are detailed with fine panel lines, it is important to make the miniature visually appealing from any distance. A key way to add dynamism and realism to a model is by modulating or highlighting specific details which will add interesting visual texture to the object; this is a technique frequently misused by modellers and can render a piece to appear almost cel-shaded, or cartoonish. Restraint is key in this regard, modulation ought to be indiscernible to the untrained eye and yet bring the model to life in a very refined manner
