Well seeing the other scale models thread I thought i'd update my post from a coulpe of weeks ago.

Finally it arrived all the way from www.hlj.com (Japan) in a rather large box. By large I mean its a meter long. Customs decided it would be fun to sting me for 24 quid and then parcelforce chipped in for £13.50 for the responsibility of passing it on. Nice... :/

Anyway;

It's a bit of a beast, but not so daunting as these Japanese manufacturers really have got the engineering tiptop. Where to start is my question, I suppose translating the instructions lol.
 
Will definately post a day by day build update, ok maybe not every day as that would probably bore peeps outta their minds :)

Not gonna be starting it for a while though as i've got to finish these:

Excuse the crap quality took the pic quick with camera phone. Having to spend ages on this, basically all i'm doing is filling, sanding, filling, sanding :/ Its an old Halcyon kit but it doesnt have any assembly guide pins on it. Makes gluing it difficult especialy when things don't line up right.

This is a beast. 1:12 scale.

Not much more to be done but i'ge gotten a little bored of it (cue apc). Gonna dirty this baby up when ready, have it look like its just done 100 laps at Brooklands.

Waste of money, after it's built it's just gonna sit around and eventually fall apart etc.
You could have spent the money on something more exciting such as anal lube. 150 tubes or so.

Chill Winston! Tell ya what I'll buy 1 tube of anal lube and send ya and buy 149 bottles of glue to hold the model together :D
