F16 may work too. I couldn't find many aftermarket canopy glass sets for modern airplanes, so I had to go with F18 (I didn't want to buy a whole kit just for the glass). I bought this:

Not yet, it's cut to bits and pieces. I used the resistance A-wing from Revell as a base, but I ended up not liking it, so I'm creating a mix of that's body shape, original style A-wing cockpit, panel lines and detailing, and McQuarrie's concept A-wing. I have set Christmas as the deadline for the build though, so I'll post some pics soon. Enjoy my half-build X-wing collection in the meantime (graphic content warning - plastic models)
