Having just finished my last two AFV models, I fancied a bit of a change and a challenge.
This re-boxed Italeri kit from tamiya has been sitting in the stash for a while and was chosen because all of the panel lines are raised. I have done very little re-scribing, so I thought that it would be fun(!) having a go at it.
Initial impressions are that the kit is fairly basic and the moulding is not at all crisp, so I.m not expecting too much, but still looking forward to doing a clean build with only minor weathering.
Here we go then.......
Very Basic Cockpit.
I made the seat belts out of masking tape and small pieces of foil. They are a little large for the scale, but look ok and add some interest to the simple cockpit. The interior was washed with dark dirt, cleaned and then dry brused with Tamiya Weathering Master grey.
