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

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. :lashed:

Beat it. I may beat it into submission. With having several under way, I can not get too PO’d at it.

I did their T-28 and it was a pretty decent kit.

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!

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