    As you can see its a fairly basic kit it needs detail in the wheel wells but overall the shape looks ok .BB

    Looking very nice though.

    However the thread should have been merged with the What's on The Workbench one. Or put into Start to Finish sub-section.

    Looks like a scaled-up version of their 1/48th scale kit, basic, but quite nicely moulded, with a lot of potential for scratch-built detailing. Nice! Thanks BB.
