A good form you have there  :)

Careful though, it gets addictive adding all the little tiny gubbins  ;D

cheers

That's an Action Fleet toy mate, the 1/52 are the Revell kits and they are smaller than 1/52  :?

That's looking really good. I wish I had half your ability with scratchbuilding! I'm sure I've seen a seller on eBay who sells little resin sci-fi bits like vents, lights, etc that could be useful for gubbins add ons. I'll see if I can find the seller.

Thanks Steve but the skin flint in me won't let me buy stuff when I can make it

No messing about then, mate?

Get stuck in as it is really starting to take shape already.

It might be worth a visit to the nearest pound shop just to see if they have any plastic model kits to provide gubbins/bits/wotsits.
