The worst kit I?ve ever built courtesy of Le Mans miniatures; very crude, appalling quality, terrible fit and all of the white metal parts missing and apparently beyond the capabilities of LMM customer services to supply them.
Built with the aid of a Fujimi donor kit, after market products, numerous scratch built parts, lots of re-engineering and a bit of artistic licence.
Not a single part was good enough to use without lots of work and as a result, I?m disappointed and glad it?s over.
IT REALLY WAS THAT BAD!
I?m gonna go and lie in a darkened room now.
Cheers, Lee.

Scale-Master
Well, after two years and seven months, it is finally done! Literally thousands of scratchbuilt and machined parts, most of them made of aluminum, but also including brass, stainless steel and various plastics, resin and acrylic materials.
It's quite possible that over the next few weeks I will come up with some small things to add, maybe touch-up or adjust. I see there is a little dusting to be done... But as of now, it appears to be technically finished! This has been a most rewarding and enjoyable build. Seems like all the frustrating times I put myself through have been forgotten now.
Thank you to all who have encouraged me and expressed interest during this long term project... - Mark
