That looks really nice. So sorry to hear the enamel vs plastic nightmare! looks like it got through pretty well.

Thanks for the nice comments
Yes, there are some things that could have been done better, but I am happy with it. But so I was with what I build years ago, and I can tell you if I post a picture of those, I risk being banned from the site :-D

I love the fact that you can see where it could be improved even though you did a great job on this, which is probably why you are good modeller !😉 😄
Looking forward to more from you bud 🙂

thanks Choppa, i will do my best 🙂 i wish i could have more free time for my models, but who doesn't?
thanks palytime. i actually need to find some wooden box so i can place it nicely.

ok, not i can consider it completed. i found a simple cheap wood box, cut part of it, use the spare wood to make the top adjust to the base of the model, and then painted in black and gave it a coat of Future (first time that i ever use it). it was a bit too think in some points, but it looks good to me, so i will leave as it is. i hope you like it.

I absolutely love the weathering on this kit - It's a good thing my phone is running low on battery - or else I'd end up spending my weekend looking ant every detail in the pictures!

thanks CaptGPF, I think it looks better in pictures than in reality. I believe i went too far with the weathering due to the mat color before washes, but i like it as it is and certainly will not touch it anymore. i plan to do a second one, with PE aftermarket and i will do a lighter weathering on it.
