I agree about the Victor being a good looking model OOB. That's how I built mine.

We are modelers - the same in spirit, in hunger to insanely buy newly released kits, hustlers in hiding our stash from our better halves and experts in using garbage as replacements for after-market parts.

Started on this one.

Still gluing big pieces/parts together. Fit seems okay, but alignment help is weak. Not sure I like the canyons and gullies they molded in on the wings.

Looking good Lyle!

Paint? Oh yeah. They want me to mix 4-5 colors in the call-outs. Probably not going to do that, either. I am really just trying to have some fun building a kit.KSaarni wrote:This is a massive plane, even in 1/72!
Thank you for watching the circus.![]()
I really don't plan on doing much other that putting it together. Cockpit cant be seen, engines are simply a flat disc glued in the wing, etc.
