Coincidentally, there is an actual Yokoyama Ma.K design named "Dollhouse", so... not too far off the mark. ;)

Lovely build. I'm very much looking forward to seeing the finished piece, and am interested in how painting that horrible plastic works out after your prepping approach.

The commander still needs something to see out of though!  ;)

I have used a strong rare-earth magnet and metal washer to attach the turret to the hull.
