He stands with his feet apart on top of a craggy rock, his right fist low at his side holding a crossguard energy blade angled up and out, a wavy crackling main blade with two short side blades at the hilt. His left arm is thrown straight out in front of him, gloved hand open and fingers spread. The oversized helmet is dark gunmetal, hammered and pitted, and webbed with red-filled cracks, with silver brow bars over an openwork faceplate and a slatted chin plate. There is no face; all the expression comes from the tilt of the helmet and the reaching hand. He wears a chunky knit cowl and a long knit cape sweeping out to one side, a quilted silver-gray tunic split at the front, a wide belt with a small engraved buckle, ribbed black sleeves, gloves, trousers and strapped calf boots. Jammed against the rock is the wreck of a small fighter craft: a cracked cockpit ball glowing red in the cracks, a ringed fuselage section with twin gun barrels, a bent and torn wing panel, and colored wires spilling out beside his boot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's in the kit\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e19 resin pieces in total.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFigure, 8 pieces:\u003c\/strong\u003e the helmeted head, the upper body, the tunic skirt, the legs, two boots and two arms (the right fist holds the hilt).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCape, 2 pieces:\u003c\/strong\u003e the knit cowl with upper cape, and the lower cape flare.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnergy blade, 3 pieces:\u003c\/strong\u003e the main blade and two short side blades.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBase, 6 pieces:\u003c\/strong\u003e the rock in two sections and the wrecked fighter in four pieces (cockpit ball, fuselage with barrels and two wing panels).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTallest single piece:\u003c\/strong\u003e a wing panel of the wrecked fighter, 68.6 mm (2.70 in) in the sculptor's file.

Your printed kit can differ slightly: resin shrinks a little as it cures, removing supports and sanding takes off some material, and the assembled height depends on how the parts are fitted. Treat the numbers as a close guide, not an exact guarantee.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSkill level: advanced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe main blade is only 2.2 mm thick and the two side blades are tiny.
