Looks good so far. Seems like it slaps together nicely as is expected from Tamiya kits.

Coming along nicely Kiwi. I have this in my stash so am interested how it goes. Although it's a Tamya so nicely I imagine 😁

There is another good kit made by Tamiya, easy to build and good looking. it is a good choice.

Does anyone know what the lengths of the radio antenna are because they have one short and long on the model year from what I've seen in photos.

Just found this one and now all caught up. This has come together well and looks really nice in primer, looking forward to seeing it in colour now. Great workmanship on display here.

Having just built the Archer spg which is based in real life on the Valentine the two kits are surprisingly different in parts and construction.
