Nice, except you're not supposed to paint the clear tip on the scope.

I thought the same thing? This is what was on display with the other original props. However I do see some small details that I need to fix.

Depends on the version of the DH-17 your going for. ANH the plastic tips are clear, with a red rod center (I used a red lightsaber lego bit and it fits perfectly). The one you made (assuming) is the Empire and ROTJ version.
Many bothans died to bring you this post...the tearing of ligaments and almost the loss of a TK's finger...
