I saw this kit on Evil-bay and thought for less than $12 with shipping why not give it a go. I’ve done limited run kits before so I knew what I was in for. Thought it would be good to show that with some effort you do’nt need to shell out big bucks for a decent kit. I’m not bashing the other Kit manufactures ,hey who does’nt love the fit and finish of the Has 109’s? Sometimes less is more ,and with the limited run kits you will develop other modelling skills you wo’nt neccessarily use with the fall together kits. No aftermarket upgrades in this just a few bits out of the spare bin to add to the spartan office. I used the kit decals and finished it with Model Master enamels. Total build time 2 days. Heres a shot of what to expect with the sprues on limited run kits
Sprue gates the size of tree limbs,but hey thats the point building skills right? Trim everything away that does’nt need to be there without damaging the part.
White 15 was the decal offering and I actually found a pic of it complete with bullet holes
The finished kit
Given the short amount of time I spent building this its easy to see you could do a lot more with this type of kit in the detailing and finish.
Also you could upgrade with a/m goodies but unless it was a off the beaten path subject you’de be right back to the same money(or more) for a cleaner molding. Hope this was informitave or at least mildly amusing,cheers Trey
