One of my dream projects
« on: October 24, 2020, 08:29:43 AM »
I was gifted this model by a friend of a friend, who was willing to let it go just to see my plans for it come to fruition. The decals are courtesy of The Big Gimper. The plastic is more like vinyl, so potential paint disasters are anticipated. But this has been a dream of mine for a very long time.

Good luck!  May your hand be steady and your eyes sharp for the task ahead.
