LSP_Kevin Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Howdy folks, This is my first project after a long hiatus from the workbench, and was meant to be a quick and easy build to help get my groove back. Sadly, the kit isn't great, and was trickier to build and paint than I anticipated. It's in 1/8 scale, and is from Diamond Select Toys - better known for their pre-built collectables. I did the best I could with the plastic smoke, but it looks better than my aborted attempt to create something more realistic using wire netting and cotton balls! To quote my wife: "That looks like sh!t". Hopefully I can work my way back to an aircraft build now.

dennismcc Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 That is certainly different and it looks great, as to the smoke that version looks good to me as I could see what it was meant to be, it does sound like your wife doesn't mess about, a bit like mine. But it has got you back to the bench which is the important bit, maybe I should go back to my roots and build a Motorbike when I next hit the modelling brick wall.

LSP_K2 Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 I thought I had commented, but apparently not. It looks real cool to me, Kev. LSP_Kevin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
