Anyone built this classic Revell kit? I picked one up pretty cheap at the LHS so I figured I'd give it a wirl. I wish I could find the missile version, USS Norton Sound, but that one I've seen on ebay for over $200.00. Seems a bit retarded to spend that kind of money on such an old, basic kit, but to each his own I guess. The one I saw on ebay was even open and partly painted. I saw where someone here scratch-built the parts to do it, guess I could give it a shot. The Mariner is a nice little kit all its own. There were a couple sink holes and some seam lines but I got them all taken care of easily. Anyone have some spare 1/400 railing? I'd like to cut off the molded railing, looks like poo. If I can find some drawings of the entire ship I may try to finish the hull underneath and add the props.
