A long drawn out build as not the best of kits regards fit issues, and my frustrations with fat fingers and poor eyesight.
I originally saw this kit going for a reasonable price on E-Bay so bought on a whim.
Researching other peoples builds it came to light that to make it into a decent model, many aftermarket parts and patience would be needed.
I probably spent more on after market (PE, Vehicles, Airwings, Crew Figures, Decals) than I paid for the kit. (why do we do this to ourselves)
Presently she is on the shelf of doom as I started her over 3 years ago, frequently moving onto other projects when I got frustrated.
Hope this is of some interest to you all.
If your sitting comfortably, I will begin
