well made a start  not to happy with the flash i must say, sink holes and raises that look like ejector marks but there the other way aeound. i also havent used my pin vice so much since i bought it.

but apart from that it seems to fit together rather well, im still working on lower half.

Spud ..
  This is gonna be awesome .. I always wanted to build a gun truck .  I started the M35.kit and had it about 95% done until I washed it with a mig wash and it attacked the glue joints . I think I went to heavy on the wash ..  Disaster..

done a little bit more tonight, getting on the rear axel was fidely and it dint help that one of the bits went missing so i had to scratch one up.

lower end almost done.

missing bit on far left of pic


Replacement scratch


Fit scratch


and so far


there isnt a lot to do in this kit even with 16 pages.. i expect the Resin to take more time than building the truck
