    Hi Mike
    Good to see you. I hope the move back to the UK goes smoothly.
    These KFS kits certainly build up into stunning models although they're not for the inexperienced. Looks like you're off to a good start.

        Hi Guys.
        Thank you for the comments. It is a pretty straight forward build but you still have to be careful. Still want to sort the air line issue.....

        Cheers Mike :sleeping: :sleeping: :sleeping: :sleeping: :sleeping:

              Hi Paul,
              Yes its white metal. The kit is a mixture of resin,white metal, etch and some plastic struts....... It is a pretty straight forward kit. My first of this scale and enjoying it.

              Cheers Mike :sleeping: :sleeping: :sleeping: :sleeping: :sleeping:

                          Hi Andy,
                          Yep, in the UK at present, and on rundown on leaving France. Macron is slowly bankrupting the country, and once the UK leave the EU, the Union will implode. I'll get off me boxnow.
                          Never worked on a total resin kit before. Enjoying it alot, moulding is supherb, fit is really good after some minor cleaning up. What to get the Airportable Landrover andTlr., maybe the Bedford MK, have to check the coffers...... :tears-of-joy: :tears-of-joy: :tears-of-joy: :tears-of-joy: :tears-of-joy: :tears-of-joy:
                          Have a good Christmas Andy and your family. Stay safe.

                          Cheers Mike :sleeping::sleeping::sleeping::sleeping::sleeping:

                            Enjoy your stay here Mike, like those metal links, look stronger than the plastic ones.

                              Lovely work so far Mike, I've never built a full resin model so will watch with interest.
