Hi, all! It's been a long time since I last posted, but it's -25C outside and modelling season has begun again. I've made only a little progress on my Buran build (actually started a second one, so nothing to report there yet. Thought I'd start another kit in my queue just for the fun of it. A 1/72 Soyouz. From a Third World manufacturer called Mach 2. What? They're French?? As in the same country that producess the Heller Constellation?? I don't believe you.
I've found only one other build of one of these on-line, and that was Mat Irvine's. I should have realized that, that wasn't a good sign as I now suspect Mr. Irvine is required by the Courts to build every real space-related kit that has ever or will be manufactured. Otherside, why would he have built this? Tho' what crime this punishment fits, I never want to know.
Mr. Irvine said that this was a bit of work. I'll go out on a limb and say that this is the single worst model kit that I've ever encountered. And I built the big Moebius Seaview model.
