I’ve been wanting to build this kit for a few years now, will be watching closely. Looking great!

[Nito74]

Thanks Bryan !!

No real problems with the kit, so far.
Just two things to look out,

The PE here , is quite thin but needs to be a perfect fit :

And these :

these C parts were very hard to fix, you need to apply a lot of strength to attach them, instead I let Tamyia thin glue to do it’s magic and avoided breaking those fragile parts.
