Hi folks
I’ve had this kit built for over 30 years, but for the past 20 years it has been sitting in a plastic container with bits broken off it, waiting for me to open the box & repair it
The box had been opened many times, most recently for an Archive-X competition to paint it up as a studio scale replica of a MPC kit used in Empire Strikes Back, I cleaned it up, sprayed it with primer, & added the red stripes etc,... but I missed the deadline for the competition & it went back in the container again
I brought it out recently & decided to paint it up as Red 4, so I cleaned it up again & resprayed it, I also carved out the windows leaving just the frames,...this is how it looks at the minute
Thank you for looking
more soon
John
