Title: Bought this baby the other day...
Post by: JudgeDredd on April 01, 2016, 10:01:02 PM
I'm so not sure when I'll get round to making it, but it was cheap and I've NEVER made a model ship before.

I'm sure for that price it's not going to be hugely detailed and may have some fit issues - but it could be my window into the ship building world.

Well...here's the sprues

I count
Though the instructions suggest the F14s and EA6s are not used in the model, though I might stick 'em on anyway.

As for size, it's 468mm long and 132mm high (19" x 5")

lol - I know...the Su-27.

I'll have it done. I've had lots of real life stuff getting in the way and chipping away at my time.
