  1. Been watching this for ages and I must say the amont of moaning from kit assemblers is amazing, and thats what most of you are, some of the most out spoken are only moderate at the art of kit making. Actually try making a kit from scratch then you may moan. Most real modellers dont make kits cause the kit makers dont or cannot cater for us.. Just off to the Anderson for a cuppa and a laugh I might be awhile
