Lovely result Mick, it's a gem of a kit isn't it

I got this same kit from my daughter 3 years ago ( free with a newspaper ) - I sort of did it as a bit of fun,having not done any model making for decades! Didn't try very hard, so not a great result :tears-of-joy:
It did the job and rekindled my interest in the hobby !

Mick, are these kits on the shelf now?

Ron

Thanks Ron, as Jim says they’ve been in for a while now

Hi Mick
That's a great result. With a bit of care these Airfix Starter kits make into nice models. Did you use the kit's paint?
Jim

Ron - these kits have been on sale in our local Aldi for a few weeks. Not many left now, not surprising at £4.99 and Christmas just around the corner.

Thanks Jim, it’s a mix of kit paints and my own

[Mickc1440]

Mick very nice outcome. I love to hand paint and your looks very convincing.

Thanks Lee

Wow gents, I didn’t expect so many responses to this little thing, I hate to see my desk empty so it had to get built. Thanks to everyone else who kindly commented I appreciate you taking the time.
