Another fairly recent but protracted build, started to try to unblock myself after a disaster with an Airfix Shackleton. I'm a bugger for tinkering and it ended up being a bit of a time vampire and left on the shelf for long periods. As a kit it's a bit dated and I wanted to sort out the panel lines and add a few rivets as the original was covered in them. The kit I have dates back to the early 80s and the decals were pretty much shot, I ended up glueing them down with pva. I also ended up losing the optical sight thing in the front door so scratch built a new one from some tube. All said I'm fairly happy with it; the weathering and snagging was probably the most fun phase over the course of a weekend in company with a Peaky Blinders box set. I've got a transport version somewhere as well but I'll need to recharge before getting back into that amount of upgrading. Cheers Liam
