Alright! Some final shots! The full 33 image gallery is up on my blog, too. More of a what-if scheme.

Great kit. I got the Bregun PE for the HB kit, works just fine. Also, opened up all the ballast holes, added rod and wire for the railing + antenna and some dry transfers for the markings. Otherwise it's all done with Tamiya paints and AK weathering products. Here are some WIP pics

Great. I also ordered the PE assuming it would work. It's enroute. Great photos and build steps. Thx for posting!

Very nice. Now we can move beyond the old Revell model.

 Modeling is an excuse to buy books.
