Following on the Rebels TIE Fighter build, time for the Mining Guild TIE Fighter. Again it will be based on a Revell TIE Fighter ball and using left-over casting from the TIE Fighter build.
First step is the wings - sections cut out of both and a strip of styrene glued onto the cut edge as detail. Here they are, already painted black, masked, and painted Haze Grey:

Made a new piece for the back of the cockpit, which came out better than the earlier one for the Fighter:

Then on to the pilot - I started out with a casting of the Greedo figure from the AMT Cantina kit. I repositioned his legs (he was doing a bit of man-spreading), and filled in the open space between his jacket on the front:
