Plashdaddy Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Hi All. I think I’ve taken this restoration of my Uncle’s Movin’ On Kenny as far as my current abilities will take it. It was a mess to start with, I should have replaced the glass, and I mended broken bits rather than replace them. I should also have got some repro decals, and I still might. My uncles health has taken a downward turn of late, so I pressed on to get it finished. So, here she is, some before shots and the finished rig. Thanks for the encouragement, thanks Richard for the instruction sheets! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hermann Kersten Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Wonderful rescue, as we can see, with some effort it is possible to make from a glue bomb into a nice model again. This posting proves that again. Hermann. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
