gorbyLooks like you worked wonders with, what looks like, a very basic kit. Your painting is excellent Harry.

Album info
I was given this kit as a box of loose parts with no instructions. So had to figure it all out for myself from only the box art and some pictures I found online. A few small parts were missing so I scratch made those. In the end it was a fun little kit of a subject I might not have chosen but now enjoy.
