Hi there

What is the basic kit that you are making? Who is the kit manfacturer?
 

regards Toby

Hi Toby,

 

The grey one are MPM kits and the blue ones are High Planes kits.

 

Two more are ready and just waiting for the decals.

Thanks Santiago

 

I guess the MPM kit is quicker to build?

Hi Toby,

 

Could be but the result is good for both kits.

 

All the models are almost done and just waiting for the decals.
