Good to see you back at the bench Peter. Sometimes just getting back to the plastic can help put things into perspective.

Thanks Graham. The last couple of weeks have been exhausting. But I think, things will be a little calmer now.

I actually did some more on this today. Haven`t ha much time last couple of days.........I have the figures in one piece and trowelled on some filler...... The sides are together and the various interior parts are on......... I'll post some more photos tomorrow.
This kit and the destructions are a proper challenge.......There are several parts that are referenced to the wrong sprue and numbers......... and then fitting the parts and sub assemblies is all sort of "Hit & Miss". With lots of dry fitting and a bit of guess work, as there are very little in the way of reference points of what goes where and only the vaguest indication on the Destructions........ There are all manner of marks & holes not used and are common for other models......... It's tiring. But I will win.

This does seem to be one of the "perks" of Dragon kits! My tiger had plenty of this confusion, but, as we all know, the upside is crisp details and plenty of work to keep us busy . Having said this, my next model is a reasonably new Tamiya easy eight! But I know I'll be back for more Dragon somewhere along the line...

At least you are getting some modelling in now Peter.


It's looking good.
