Its builds like this that are really getting me into these wheeled vehicles.
It looks great Jim. Just the right amount of weathering IMO.
Thanks for sharing.

Well done Jim. After reading your review on this kit I went out and purchased it, hopefully mine comes out half as well as yours when I get around to building it.

hi Jim,
really great build and the final paintwork turned out sweet.
one really minor thing to consider for the next project is increasing the antenna thickness as the real thing is almost as thick as the top of the base collar:
for discussion purpose only
this is such a tiny point but since this is the feedback forum i thought i would try to find something constructive to discuss in an otherwise superb job. the antennas seem to be encased in a shell rather than a traditional exposed "wire" which gives them a sturdy appearance.
the trump kit looks like a nice gem. cheers, bd
