Steve-- This is Braille scale! Wow!, very impressive work especially the PE hinges and locks. You did a great job on the brush guards. What gauge wire did you use for the brush guards?
thanks

Steve,

You have turned this kit into a very detailed and impressive build. Super kit bashing job! I can hardly wait to see you finish it. Lots of scratch building indeed.

Hi DJ,
Thanks for that! Can't tell you the actual guage of the wire, its for jewellery making. Found it in a local craft store.

What!

I'd be very happy if I managed to produce something of that quality in 1/35!

If your painting skills are nearly the same level then you are going to have one very impressive model on your hands!

Amazing work, well done,

James
