Very nice rip tape detailing. How did you do that? Paint and masking tape?

Stephen,

Great work on your "Strutter"! I am assuming that is the 1/48 scale kit. You have inspired me even more. I am currently trudging through the Eduard/Flashback 1/72 "Strutter" kit. It is coming along though. Again great job!

All the best,

Buz

Greetings Buz, Yes it is the Roden 1/48 scale kit #402. As for your Eduard / Flashback kit here is a build from young man on another site. I hope his experience can help you in some small way. Model On!


Toko build 1/72

The finished Toko build
