Well it's been quite a while since I've posted on the forums, hope everyone is doing well in this crazy world.
I've been working on a few kits for a couple of years with a lot of scratch built parts, this is a break from that and is an out of box build for the most part. I used the Aires wheel wells because I manged to lose some parts of the kit ones. I can't believe the size of some of the parts I lose as I get older. I'll have to say that the Aires part is nothing but a pain in the butt with the sanding, fitting, sanding, fitting, sanding, correcting parts sanded through and so on. The kit parts on kits are just as nice and fit much better. I also replaced the gun barrels with metal tube.
Anyway, here are the pics of the finished project.
