steveracer Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Started as a Christmas gift this season. Tried some new techniques and different paints. Attempted to watch quality control. Tried to complete the model as quickly as reasonable -3.5 weeks is a record for me. this a great kit with excellent fits. And was on sale at HL so the wife liked that part 😄 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happy grumpy Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Beautiful bug Steve. Indeed this kit is really good I build several of them as well as the tamiya 66. You did a great job on yours. Nice photography BTW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Macleod Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 I like this a lot. I've never had this kit but every time I see a good one like yours I get the desire to build one. Well done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steveracer Posted January 20, 2022 Author Share Posted January 20, 2022 Some of our customers wanted to take the bug for a drive. So I put plates on it and opened up the cooling slots so they won’t have problems on the test drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMT68 Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 That's a very nice clean build and I like the understated paint scheme. Eventually I'll have to get one of these for my collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
