Well that’s not right… :hmm:

The finish looks good, but the stance… :shocked:

All right Lyle! You're one ahead of me :bag:
You could put it on a small base and make the terrain support the suspension.
Thanks,

Thanks, Mike. Yeah, it does. I MAY try to pull it loose using some Extra Thin, or airbrush cleaner
