Hey all. Here is the progress on the PST KV-1C with a good chunk of the Part PE set installed. To say that some of this stuff is tiny would be an understatement. On the rear deck are tie downs that are made up of 3 parts, the smallest which was not much bigger than the tip of a new #11 blade!

Comments Appreciated!

Cool, braille scale and PE can be quite a challenge, but that's why we like it, right ?

And yes, like Karl: How did you do that grass/flower field ? It looks awesome!!

It is beautiful. Did your PST KV-1 come with multicolored plastic like mine did? Mine was so soft, the plastic would get gouged just by looking at it too hard.

Thanks and some answers.

Silfor is a grass matt product. It comes with the little flowers! I all did was streach it out a bit and glue in into place. In the US it can be obtained at Scenic Express, a model railroad hobby shop.

Sabot, the kit is a multi color specticle. And the quality of teh pastic is terrible. Removing the detail for the PE was much harder than it should have been.
