V-Wing and Jedi Interceptor

These two models are both from  Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith. First up is Anakin's fighter, the ETA-3 Jedi Interceptor, seen in the opening battle scene of the movie.

I like this little fighter, you can almost see it leading to the later TIE fighter design. This build up is of the roughly 1/48 scale Revell Pocket Kit.





Next is the Alpha-3 Nimbus-class V-wing star fighter. This ship gets very little screen time. They are used as background fighters in the opening battle, but you can't really see them. You can catch a quick glance of them as they escort the Emperor's Shuttle with the crispy-fried Vader near the end of the movie.  This model  is built from the 1/72 scale Fantastic Plastic kit.
