I`m realy happy that you keep posting on Torsten, don`t take care of pitty behavior or comments, it only reminds me the comment from Larry Flynt to the judge...
There are a lot of rumors around and people like to see what to expect from that kit, we don`t carry all the same skill, so it helps many people to judge about issues on their own, cause they know on their own if they have the skills which are needed or not.
I find it strange for a plastic kit that you have to build it like a multimedia kit with test fitting and changes, so to me the kit is clearly overpriced. Sure, it`s a new one and not a re edition from existing molds which work.
The kit is a basic starting point as far as i can see, but surely not for someone without experience. The 1:20 Tamiya version i used on my build was also only a starting point, but it surely takes time and effort to turn it into something better.
I wish their would be more people posting progress here, so as your the only one sharing experience on this build, please keep it coming!!!
