Evening all

The kit was in a sale at my local hobby shop just before Xmas for 1/2 price. Never one to pass on a bargain, I bought it even though, for reasons of space, I'm trying to restrict my builds to British armour.

It's finished with Tamiya acrylics sprayed freehand, the decals applied over a few coats of clear and finished off with a couple of coats of the new (at any rate to me) Tamiya XF86 Flat Clear that's thinned with roughly 30% Tamiya thinners.

One snafu in the build - whatever is that etch mesh long box shaped thing that's mounted on the left arm of the jib should be mounted on its narrow side not the wider side. I'd super-glued it on along its length before checking the instructions!!!

That is a very detailed kit Chris. Very well painted , I'd be very happy to build one as good as this. Just on Ebay looking to buy this kit, price is a bit high on Ebay at the moment but I will get one and build it
