The Banshee has been painted in sandy browns with various panels and the ‘cheek’ armor painted a darker brown similar to that of a Jawa Sandcrawler. Accents and details are painted with grays and a dark red. The stabilizer wings are left alone as they matched the colors as they were.
Zuser has heavily modified the Banshee to have a scream similar to that of the TIE scream. He has added small canted plates to the ‘cheeks’ and throat slot of the ship, which generates the Banshee Scream effect. He has also made modifications to cause a humming effect similar to a LAAT by making modifications to the repulsorlift systems. The hum is only present when landing, taking off and when the Banshee adjusts from landing to taking off and vice versa.
