It looks like you're having fun with this one Lyle, but I'm sure you'll whip it into shape. I do like the talc idea.

You know... I've never seen a Roden kit build that's ever convinced me to buy one

Beat it. I may beat it into submission. With having several under way, I can not get too PO’d at it.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

I did their T-28 and it was a pretty decent kit.Stuart wrote:You know... I've never seen a Roden kit build that's ever convinced me to buy one

Nice, John. I like T-28s a lot.

I see someone has a love for the details.

It has been a while...okay, ages May 2021. But, I have been chipping away at this and have the white on it...rattle can Tamiya AS-20.
About ready for decals and all the stuff I break off as I go. This time I've waited to add the landing gear, antennae, etc.

Nice and good that the Pilatus did not land on the Shelf of Doom or in the dumpster!

Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall

Nice to see this again Lyle. I commend you for keeping the breakable bits off while painting and decaling. You got this man!
