Labour of love, chase after perfection or maybe just maybe my insanity in a styrene form.
I've painted and stripped this body probably 6 times, it took me about a year since the start to finish and this is 2nd body used as first after few too many baths in dot4 eventually dissolved. Revell was very kind to send me parts free of charge. Not a lot of changes om this kit however for the first time I've tried to use photo etched kit - hobby design. Still unsure about those kind of accessories and found it to be rather nerve racking at times. After about 30 min trying to put air vents together that consisted of 3 parts one of them flew toward my carpet only to be lost forever...
Enough of words spilled over this kit... let images do the talking now
