1/700 Akagi - ready for paint.

Post by tigrazor »

Insanity in a nutshell...

I think this will take 5 years or something. Should I train an ant colony to glue the parts on? :hmm:

Nice - I thinks you'll do a great job of that.

Ants may well be useful!

Seems theres a lot to be corrected. Most probably I wont use all of the PE parts - for example the Hasegawa flight deck is very well executed. But nothing beats PE when you need fine ladders, railings etc.

Here you go! :shoutout:
Ants are no good idea, because they tend to take parts away from the kit and store them in their home...
