Congratulations!
Good job for a modeller who builds a resin model for the first time. Successes in the future works!

Thanks for that review Andras, I have been looking at that kit but I could not find any info about it. I may just have to pick one up!

Nicely done, a beautiful build of an ugly duckling indeed. The history surrounding it was fascinating and proved much more engaging than the tankette itself probably ever was..

You are welcome! I write these reviews from the point of view of an average model builder, so I guess I can safely say it is absolutely a good model to build even for someone who is not a Mig Jimenez. It was a really nice build, and I highlighted the issues I ran into - none of them were deal breaking. The build was really enjoyable.

And the subject is pretty much unique...
