For anyone interested in this kit Steve Zaloga has just finished building a test shot of the B1 bis and pics have been posted over on Missing Lynx. This is the best looking one I've seen yet, cool camo scheme and markings, and very well done weathering. (IMHO) As I said in a previous thread about this model, I've never had much interest in the Char B1 but seeing the first pics from the Paris show I discovered a little. Well, upon looking at Steve's pics and reading his comments my interest is growing. I won't be the first person on the block to have one but I'm definitely going to pick one up sometime. Here is a link to the build:

Sweet build.

It is looking better and better. It's all going to come down to my finances when it arrives. I'd like to pick one up, but I also want to save for the Nationals.

That looks the mutts nuts :-) :-)
Mr Zaloga has done a blinding job on that
Can't wait to get mine and have a crack at that cammo :-) :-)

Fantastic build of a fantastic kit! Can't wait to get my hands on one!
Cheers and happy modelling!
