A... wait, WHAT?! Yes, you heard right. Hasegawa reissued the Maschinenkrieger "Camel" and I got one of them.

It may look a bit ugly, but imho its something special. And I LOVE special things.

Re: A Camel In Space...
Firstly, the pilot got some paint, then the helmet. The "Camel" looks a bit boring with grey tones etc., so at least the vcockpit should have some colorful spots.

You can learn all the math in the 'Verse, but you take a boat in the air that you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps her in the air when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurtin' 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
Re: A Camel In Space...
Not this one. At least thats what Hasegawa says.

Re: A Camel In Space...
Whoever is responsible for this kit - my deepest respect! All fits together by pressure, you wont need glue in most cases. So building is pure fun - I guess everyone who did a Ma.K. kit before knows what I mean. Only very small spots need some glue and putty can (almost) stay at home.
The pilot is done and looks pretty realistic. Spare decals helped a lot here:
-1/16 rank sign (Tamiya)
-artificial horizon and danger sign (?) of a Revell Ju52 (Revell)
-white stripes for the helmet
The grey areas on the feet are an anti-slip-surface (MrSurfacer, brought on with a sponge).

Re: A Camel In Space...
You have to enjoy a kit that fits so well. Coming along nicely. Pilot look pretty good. Who knew he played for the Cleveland Browns!
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!"..
