Well, here it is at last. Certainly wasn't an easy build but possibly worth the effort. Any Harry Potter fans out there?

Any questions, please ask.

Lovely project Pete, turned out great well done, cheers

 

[Jim R]

That is excellent. These kits are a lot of work but the detail and end result justifies all the time and effort.

 

[Andy T]

I like that a lot Pete!

So much detail and so many elements to it.

Bravo!

Superb Pete. You may not have enjoyed the build so much, but I thoroughly enjoyed watching this come together. The end result is fantastic.

Thanks for all your kind comments.
I was getting frustrated with it, because I'd thought it would be a reasonably easy build with my shaky hands, but it wasn't! Very few of the parts have any positive location so they just need to be glued in the right place, which I suppose is proper modelling. I also lost some momentum because there were some parts missing from the kit and it took the supplier a few weeks to organise replacements. They actually sent me a complete new kit, but by the time it arrived I had already sourced the parts I needed from someone who'd bought an identical kit but only used some parts from it so he sold me the parts I needed. As a result I have a complete new kit in its sealed packaging so if anyone wants it I'm open to offers before it goes on ebay.
