...I am building Convoys S:t Chamond 194mm SP Gun. It is an
ambitious but also a bit daunting kit, with almost all the little
detail present. The accuracy is almost 100%. The problem is not
that, it's the moulding. It is less than perfect, with tiny air
holes here and there. And the barrel is a small nightmare, a bit
warped and uneven: I will have to decide if to proceed or simply
replace it. Also, some parts are very thin, and break
easily, even if they are well moulded. So much of the work on this
kit is dedicated to A.) Cleaning up mould lines and removing thin
mould flash, and B.) repairing parts with parts of it missing - if
you understand what I mean! This WILL be an impressive and exotic
model, so the the work will be worth it! But the road there will be
long...
