Looking at the Thomas Graham book, the 1/144 scale series don't appear to have been distributed in the USA in the 1970s, just in Europe and Japan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mjwomack Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 nostalgia! Yep think it would have been in the 70s that I first came across one; wasn't sure that I wanted to build anything that small at the time. As for the 'tube' of glue, oh those were the days- Novo kits used to have them as well and my did they stink. I expect if you were to open it today a major chemical incident would be declared. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wkennerley Posted June 29, 2022 Author Share Posted June 29, 2022 Some painting progress, I know grey is not right for the underside but I dont seem to have anything else similar so am sticking with grey for this build. Just noticed the Blue paint is a bit lumpy, need to sand that a bit 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
