One of Three Completed by the Duke.

Post by Duke Maddog »

This is the ancient Hasegawa kit that I built as a kid so this is a bit of a Nostalgia build for me. I didn't try to correct anything, but I did use this to practice my basics and painting skillsets while enjoying the trip down Memory Lane. It isn't meant to be an award winning model; or even one I take to contests. I couldn't even get the one sliding door to work on the one side that I had one. Still, this was a fun and diverting little model to work on; after all I only paid five bucks at a local swap meet!

Here she is all completed as much as I possible. A couple pieces went missing, namely one sliding door and one of the twin 'machine guns' that are supposed to mount on the ends of the weapons pylons:

Maybe if I can find four M-60-type machine guns to add to a pylon mount, I can complete this model. Until then, I'm calling this one done.

Thanks for looking in, comments are welcome.
