Well, the tiny little beastie is finished. Waited right to the end before I knocked off an aerial as well…..there is no crew figure. I couldn’t get one to fit so you’ll have to imagine the commander is off answering a call of nature somewhere……

Almost nothing can be seen of the interior at all :flushed: . Nice kit, but took a bit of thinking and had some very small parts to contend with.

Before I forget, here’s the calibration shot…..I think the lawn ornaments could probably pick it up and carry it……..

That is quite amazing Tim. It is a superb result. I still can't believe how small it is. I reckon your years of painting "Little Blokes" must have helped build at this size.

Many thanks for the complicated. As to the skill level, it’s just a bit of practice and application of simple techniques Jim, nothing world beating.
 
Great build Tim. And a wonderful paint and weathering job too. I can't do this on 1/35 so no idea how you do it on the smaller scale.

Thanks Mike. To be honest, I do the same thing in 1/72 as I do in 1/35. I just cut out things that will come out overscale, like chipping…..
