Mark Sherwood Hi Gary, thanks for the compliment. The kit came with three figures recent Tamiya mouldings, which I will paint up at a later date and after I've re-modded the Sherman. I am contemplating a vignette (start small) as I've never done dio's etc, before. 🤟🥸👍
Mark Sherwood Vintagemodeler, it would be more beautiful if I finished too 😅👍 mind you I'm with Biggles of 266. I prefer the Camel. bughunter. A. It did click, topside. B. That is a dry fit. C. Extraneous parts actually not needed or would not be seen causing fit/alignment problems. D. Every Eduardargh kit I have attempted have the same problems misalignment, fuselage popping, belly sections pivoting due to interiors (Fw-190 build. Completed) E. It could be me (probably) F. The kit is Seven years old and this is a recent purchase. G. As MacArthur said "I shall return" 1. When I finish my de-stress builds. 2. My skill level improves. 🥸🤘🥸🤟🥸👍
Every Eduard Kit I've approached to build so far is an exercise in perseverance and frustration. A bit like a Monk wearing a hair shirt and self flaggelating.
Steven Van Dyck My scrapbox of empty/replaced PE frets, measured for you. It doesn't contain yet the empty sprues from ABSD and Columbia, and the PE for the ships I made.
Mark Sherwood If you can work with it (especially on ship builds) fair play to you Steven 👍 To me it looks likes a nightmare, which I cannot unsee now 😫 Avaunt! Photo etch, avaunt!!! Get thee gone to farthest depths of the lowest draw on the Cabinet! 🥸🤘🥸🤟🥸🖖
Don't fall for. . . . . . . . . . . . . lets look at fireplaces, two piece suites and dining tables. I have spent two and half weeks redecorating the breakfast room and front room. No bench time for me. 🙁 🙁 🙁 🙁
David H Lovely finish on this, I've yet to tackle luftwaffe camo. It scares me !! Please don't take this as criticism but when you mark up photos , if you add text to the photo it's easier to understand what you are trying to highlight .. 👍🏻

Mark Sherwood Hi David. Thanks for the compliment, no problem about the text all pointers welcome. Will rectify, I have the relevant text in the description somewhere. . . . . . . . I hope. The build was frustrating that sometimes I did not make a note. I agree it took me ages to get around to German Camo' all my previous German machines were brush painted. This was my first attempt after practising on plasti-card to get my thinning ratios and air pressure right. Give it a go mate you might surprise yourself.
Mark Sherwood Bought it again as PM Models where doing 15% off (along with the Razorback)I will depict it as serving in a USMC Squadron this time (without the school boy errors of the previous build)
