This is Italeri's Fast Assembly kit No. 7510 built straight out of the box.

There are 2 kits in the box each having only 15 parts that can be built without using any kind of adhesive. Finished using Gunze, Vallejo and Tamiya paints and weathering sets.

Not looking too bad for a simpler kit, Toby. The pictures show that it has fairly nice detail. It's always nice to see what the manufacturers are coming up with in small scale. I've seen some of these twin packs in the LHS and wondered what they might be like. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
Jan

Hi Toby

for just 15 parts its not a bad looking model, and the light weathering you gave it suits it well

cheers

Hello Toby This looks like a kit simple enough that I could even do it without too much trouble. Your painting and weathering is subtle but effective. The details of the moulding look pretty go too.

Its so easy to build it took me under 30mins for assembly. Add about 45mins for painting, paint to dry and weather. I wish more kits this detailed and with this few parts come out. But I don't know if all of the detail is accurate. I wasn't after accuracy anyway.



Oh and Jan, yes I will join. I'll enlist soon and hopefully with Christmas break coming up, i'll be able to (hopefully) finish this time.
