Beautiful work, Aracula!

Where did you get the markings?

Had to make my own as none were available in 1/18th size.

Very Nice Mate,it's good to see Widgie Gleed's markings and you even have his Farargo Cat emblem too. Well Done.

Cheers

Okay the last one I am going to list has sold, this kit is going to be retired and am moving on to the next project.

I will post a better build description in the next few days for all those who need it.

Thanks to all who bought one and will deliver another 1/18 scale project as soon as possible for any who want one.

The current wants I have seen are a Typhoon, a He162, and a Marder 3 kit.
