Cats are the [Insert Type Here] Monster's henchcritters & work with* them, often feeding them important items of styrene whilst staring directly at you. Their blood is likely to anger the said Monster result in them consuming more, & more essential, styrene parts, & will only be satisfied with blood sacrifices of the order of those conducted by the Aztec & Mayan cultures.




[*: Cats, obviously, never work for anything.]

Hi all,

Well finally finished and on time.

The homemade decals gave me a few headaches, I probably gave them too much varnish and they started curling outwards and not sticking to the Tamiya primer.

 I gave the model a couple of coats of Alt Kleer and that helped, they still curled but they were more inclined to stick once I had got them flattened. Another coat of Alt Kleer to seal them and the kit transfers and all is happy.

This kit clearly show its age and fit is OK but filler is required. The decal sheet included with the kit is excellent but does not include the signal red markings. I would not savor decorating this kit out of the box, the thought of brush painting all that red is the stuff of nightmares !

Enough of my ramblings here's the finished kit.........
























And a couple of scale shots





Very happy how this on came out.

Any comments or criticisms gratefully accepted

Nicely done, especially after the trouble you had . . .  :smiley:
Just the job to ferry the HRH's from Northolt to pick up one of my Concordes for an overseas trip . . .   ;)   ;D


cheers,
