The Photos
Wooooonderful build Calum! One of my long time favorites too! I've noticed that to depict a 1991 Hog you had to delete all traces of the LASTE program inaccuratrly portrayed on this airframe OOB (antennas, slime lights, etc.) Do you remember the modifications you did to the original kit?
ReplyDeleteThe outcome is FABULOUS! I'm drooling while I'm cheching every entry of your blog. Top notch stuff everywhere!
Best wishes from Chile :)
Hi Oscar. Thanks for the comments. I can't remember the mods I made, I did find a good thread online somewhere. I think I've you ask at ARC you might get the answers from better informed than me. I do remember taking stuff off the vertical fins.
