    I thought they only made resin models, I've been eyeing one up for a while, but have the impression that they are not beginners models, by any stretch of the imagination. What is it you have?


    Edited to add, I'm talking about accurate armour, sorry, my mistake...

      Accurate Miniatures are no longer in business, but several of their kits have since been re-released by others (Italeri, Academy, Eduard). They are superb models with lots of detail, but as a result more complex than an equivalent Tamiya or Hasegawa, though the quality is very similar. It is essential to follow the instructions carefully though, as trying to install things out of sequence can lead to fit issues later in the build.
