Finished now
I’m pleased to get it done before the looming deadline.
Thank you to Dave (Gern) for suggesting and hosting the group build. Also a big thank you to all who followed along with the build and added suggestions and encouragement![Thumb2 :thumb2: :thumb2:](/smiles/thumb2.png)
It’s not a bad kit, certainly better than some Italeri kits I’ve built in the past.
The fit was generally good and you could build an acceptable model straight from the box.
I did add a few extras though, some scratch building and also some seatbelts etc from the Airwaves pe set.
Unfortunately most of it can’t be seen once the model is closed up.
Paints used were from the Hataka Red Line British SAR Service paint set (vol 1).
The decals were the most troublesome part of the build with some of them not settling very well.
Enough waffling now, here are the pictures![wink ;) ;)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
