I love the artwork on the edward boxes - the artist is one of the best doing box art (My opinion only).

Lotsa parts! You going with the box art paint scheme?

 

[Firesmacker]

I'm shelving this kit as it is shit. Too many fit issues. I can't even get the 'fuse to align even after a lot of sanding. The time limit is too short to play around with this thing. I'll try and figure something out but it may require buying something. If not, I'll just drop out.

Bummer, sorry to hear that. Hoping you'll find another kit and take a mulligan.

That's not supposed to be a jibe at moi,is it? Honestly I think I am on the road to recovery....I also think Jeff has plenty of thinks working in his lair...

Paul, I suspect Bob was referring to the issues he had building an Eduard 190 in the not to distant past !

Oh no no, no jab at you Paul.

It's a jab at that kit. I attempted the Pips Priller version and got hung up on the wing roots and teh gun covers. Didn't even make it to the cowls.

 

[Paulw]

Honestly, I didn't take it any way but good naturedly. I think there are some Eduard kits out there that are designed to really try a modelers patience.

 

[Iron Mike]

If it was easy, anyone could do it! :drinks

 

[Firesmacker]

Yeah, its just that at this point I don't have the patience or inclination to beat it into submission. Maybe another time.
