New build. This is the Gnat as it was during the 78 season. About an hour in. This thing is tiny

Actually they weren't too bad. Minor trimming and they fit

Oh nice!!

I’m really starting to love the tiny 1:72’s.

When I was a kid all I built was 72nd. Then I got into detailing and went up to 48th. Now I do both. With a little 144th in between

I think Archie Bunker said it best. "Geez, Louise!"....That sucker is tiny.
