twp1 Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 I'd always wanted to complete a kit in this way and this kit gave me the perfect reason to do it. I've since also completed a Swordfish and Dauntless in the same style. Hope you like. 35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keith in the uk Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Hummm good on paper until you remove the parts and start filling and sanding , new paint job me thinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben_m Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Love the idea. Have you thought of using a black mount boards, so the runners ('sprue') stands out more? But I see that you actually painted it in the cream of the mount board, so maybe you wanted it to blend in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jean Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 I think I will do the same, but without painting.... That way I may build more than one kit every geological era. Elegant if unusual. And very smart-looking JR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M_Sinclair Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Well shoot. If I did this I'd probably get a lot more... uh, finished? Very cool idea! Tempted to try this myself. -matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
