Todders Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Growing up in the U.S. that kit was and probably still is a common feature in any store that had a passing interest in plastic models. I always thought of it as toy-like but after seeing this I am truly impressed. Revell- Monogram owes you a debt of gratitude my friend. Marvelous job on that one! 👍 Todd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jean Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Really impressive!!! Who would have thunk that a snap-tite would look so good. OK, being a good modeler does help, but congrats are in order!!! Cheers JR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevej60 Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 That is a beauty Martin and as a fan of Hobby boss and Pegasus Hobbies easy kit's another example of how good a job can be made of kits some consider toy like. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IanC Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 That's nice Martin. I can see the appeal of quick build kits too. Great way to get straight onto the paint job. And yours is very good! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhantomBigStu Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 (edited) Saw this over Christmas as my local has one of these hanging and I’m considering it since see the polishing the nose comment, that the red flag it sounds like to return me to sanity? Fantastic work anyway Edited January 15 by PhantomBigStu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantastic work anyway Thanks, I was afraid to sand the clear parts, but with numbers of sandpapers from 600, 800, 1000, 1500, then 2000 and 5000 followed by tooth paste with old cotton cloth under water was not too complicated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like something I can do, (I have up to 3000 plus a 12000 mesh cloth) so not retuned me to sanity and I probably will enter in the ww2 twins GB, and actually now I think about itI fancy converting it to a gun nose anyway Edited January 15 by PhantomBigStu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
