US Landing Ship (Medium) Revell 1/144

[Guest]

Spruce shots of this one, it will take a little time for me to build this one as I have just got out of hospital after a bone graft on my Lt shoulder & it will be a week or 2 before I can move it.

Looking good so far John. Couple of questions though. What's the build quality like and are the vehicles included?

Hi Gern the build quality is very good & I have not come across any bad fitting issues, all I will say is have a very sharp knife for all the very small parts as there are a lot of them, as for the vehicles they come with the kit.

I tried to find 1/144 AFV on line but could not find any, do you know of any !!.

Hi John. There is some 1/144 armour available - I found these on ebay with a quick search:

Some of them are ready-built and painted, but at least it's nice to know they're there if needed. There's also a Dora railway gun which looks impressive:
