Album info
Last year, when I moved to Greensboro, NC from Norfolk, VA, many of the built models in my stash arrived in less than perfect condition. It was a quick move, so normal preparations that I might have taken weren't. Most have been repaired, mainly gear issues or weapons. This one had a little bit more damage. Obtained some new parts from Revell and started in on this.
