Juggernut Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 I wouldn’t even buy it at the sale price…. geedubelyer, Archimedes, scvrobeson and 2 others 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRAZY IVAN5 Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 Is it that rough? I WAS thinking about getting it awhile back but now, I'm not sure, don't need the aggravation ATM. Besides that I really need to save up some cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame Infinity just made the fugly variants and that the flaps set is separate. I would have bought the whole deal with resin extras at full price if it were a T.11 trainer. I also can't think of what an FB.3/5 deserves to replace, given I'm cranking-down the stash ceiling. Just too fugly for a jet. Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Griewski Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 All the Vampires and related are fugly to me also. But that is the appeal. Form follows the technology at the time. The kit has its issues and that is pretty much why I only have one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pup7309 Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Maybe just the kit is fugly. A T5 like in Temora museum I’d do but this infinity one sounds like a bear. The newish one by Airfix in the everyman’s scale might be the play here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotsman Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Well I'm working on my 2nd Vampire ,it's a challenging build but it's worth it I think Tony T and BloorwestSiR 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geedubelyer Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 I think this is my first short run kit and I understand why folk say it's a challenge. It's important to adapt ones build style because it's impossible to simply glue everything up. Every part of the kit requires clean up and dry fitting. I'm rather glad I've chosen to model a beaten up museum bird. That at least gives me some leeway if the finish ends up rough BloorwestSiR, CRAZY IVAN5 and Alain Gadbois 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or a vampire (bat?) face and a Maple Leaf. That's my pick and the way I'll build mine. Edited March 30 by BloorwestSiR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I build drop-together 1:48 as simple leisure but need a regular fight in 1:32. Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
