Tim's old Frog Focke Wulf **Finished**

Select the most rubbish kit in your stash, one that probably has no other chance of seeing a workbench, and build it however you wish - and have fun doing it along with others likewise occupied.
The GB runs from 27 Dec through 31 Jan and your host is DazDaMan.

I won't need an extension (for a change) as I finished it today. :)

The decals behaved as I expected and broke up in the water so I used some from a Matchbox 190. Luckily one of the options on the Matchbox sheet was numbered 17 so I was able to use them for the 7 and 1. I did have to give them a coat of yellow as they were white. For the final touch I added a prop blur.

For a basic kit it turned out well.

Thanks to Daren for leading the GB as otherwise this would probably never have escaped the stash. :grin:

That looks great. The prop blur helps it too.

Looks good dude. I have that clunker too in the deep stash, and hope it turns out that good. Maybe a contestant for Krap Kits 2020!

Nice Wulf, I´m still tempted to get myself one, that i see on auction (right now, I´m pretty much into old kits!)
Waiting for the day, when wars for territory will be something to be read about in history books only.

Playing Tetris taught me: If I clean up too much, my kits disappear.....8-(
