Wasn't too sad a piece of work in the end.
I have the wreckage of one of these kits bought cheap but that is
being held for another not totally unrelated project sometime in the future.
But that's a tale yet to be written.

in closing I would like to thank my Aunt Margie for letting use her dustbin for
supporting the model while I took these pics,
the dog for not wanting to play while I took said pics and
my cousin Lou for the excellent barbie!
