So I’ve made several small purchases for my 1/35 armor over the past couple of weeks… most for use on current projects…

Plus I picked this one up for a generous offer of only paying for shipping

Now I need to get a set of decals for it, as I have something quite specific in mind for this one…

Nice scores Mike and Carlos. I’ve been looking for a decent Devastator kit. I am curious on the fit yours Mike. Looked on scalemates and gives you 2 choices from USS Hornet. The PE belts don’t look like it’ll give you trouble but…. I do like the masks that’s included in the kit. It’ll make masking those greenhouse canopy easier. Are you looking to paint your own insignia or use the decals?

I got this for a steal of $20. Although mine doesn't have the templates for the canopy masks. :bored:

Thanks Tom.

John, I’ll add the figures and accessories after the 12 hour challenge build is over. I’ll leave a few things removable to allow for the Black Dog set items to be added after the fact.

$20 is s huge steal! I believe that's a $60 kit. I'm surprised it didn't come with canopy masks for the Devastator.

Yeah I knew it was a good deal. I'm sure I can find canopy masks for it though.

Stumbled across this on ebay - 0 bids and 3 minutes left in the auction. I couldn't help myself! Decals look a bit iffy - they are taped to the window so we'll see how that works.

Thanks,
