Great work there Bruce. I notice yiur JS-2 is the Orange box. How is the kit? I'm currently boding my way through their Red Army M4A2 and while there's some great detail the fit has some real issues.

Hi and thanks for the kind words, I'm very much a novice but i was happy enough with the outcome by my standards.

I don't recall a lot about the kit, it was fairly simple, no PE from memory, and not a huge amount of detail. The fit can't have been too bad or I would have been cursing. There is a part on the front right of the upper hull, above the hooks in picture 2, which I couldn't follow from the instructions how it was meant to be oriented and I couldn't find anything to help in reference photos. Also the tracks were a bit of an ordeal, I think it was my first time with individual links and I struggled a bit. But no major issues to report.

I think the Orange Box stuff is a bit hit and miss, depends on which side of the great quality control revolution at Dragon/Cyber Hobby they're based on. I stumbled across an Adam Mann video on Dragon kits, very interesting viewing at Youtube Video

Good luck with your build, look forward to seeing the finished product!
