The plan

This kit came in a sturdy top opening box which was a nice surprise, (maybe Revell are getting the message) and on opening I was greeted with another strengthening open ended box to keep everything tucked away.

I took an hour to go through the instructions and sprues to familiarise myself with the kit before I took the sprue cutters out. By the end of this I was itching to get going.

Being a creature of habit, I like to build as many of the sub-assemblies and before I start on the build proper. I dislike leaving the laborious end bits to the end as it were. I find it very satisfying having them all ready and painted so they are not hanging over my head, I tend to rush them then and spoil all my hard work.

On with construction…
