I was trying to knock out a low part count 'out of the box' build this long weekend, but the Boss had me hang the Christmas lights and set up the Christmas village.

Maybe by this weekend I'll finish my MB 339 as well as this 442

Looks good. Speed Build much? :bow:

It usually takes me forever, first time 'speed' build and that flopped, using my airbrush was cool so, now I just need to get better using it. Many of my builds stall when it comes to painting, this 442 build maybe the ticket to help me get over the fear of using my airbrush and finish some builds!
