FINISHED! Photos of Italeri's 1/35 Scale PT-109

Fellow Modelers,

 
Attached are photos of my 1/35 PT-109.  It took me 263 hours to build over 3-1/2 months. Although I did make some modifications, I kept them to a minimum and tried to stay close to an “out of the box build”. In my opinion this kit builds into a great looking model straight out of the box. This project took a lot longer than expected, but I believe the large number of parts, and the required clean up really added to the hours. Although not on the same level of a Hasegawa, Tamiya or Wingnut Wings, Italeri has made a very good great kit. I hope enjoy the photos.

Wow great job. I just read the build review of this kit in FSM mag this month. Great paint job. Nice and clean build.
