Looks Good , see the wheels gave you some troubles and for the scale the kit has nice details and will look lovely under a coat of paint .

You’re right....but for a war game piece it’s ok.

This scale is a good test for me.


But I think , as you said, with a coat of paint it will be ok

Hi Baracca ,

That site is no longer around , but it was modeling site which had a war game section ...this was about 15 years ago now . Sorry that I'm not able to aid you in this .

The second Dr.1 turned out even better then the first one ..Good for you . She looks really nice . What schemes are going with on these ?

Good choice for paint , very easy to use for brush painting and cleans up wonderfully .

Make sure that you wait for the paint to fully cure before too much handling . The paint will wear off the corners and edges if you don't .
