Matthew,
Great review; I wish it came out last month though. I have one of these partially done; it's getting final paint/weathering soon.
You nailed it regarding assembly vs painting order -- tricky for sure! Even with all the fiddly bits -- a nice kit!

Excellent review, one of the best I've seen in a long time. Pity the kit isn't as good as the review.

Thank you chaps for the positive feedback. Mike, I had the kit a month ago, and worked (almost) as fast as I could, but it takes a while to make a review of this type! I hope we'll get to see some shots of your rendering of this kit at some stage.

Great build review Matthew, and I second what Bill said as one of the best
The numbering of the photos to reference back to the text is a big help. Nice to see you do something in 1:35 too!
