Kevin Callahan Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 This is one that I rather enjoyed. At first I wasn't sure, since Valom doesn't have the greatest reputation for fit. But I really had no major issues with it; certainly no more than any other non-steel-mold kit. The kit was actually for a T4 (got a good price at the Great Models closing sale) but I figured with the Warpaint book that I already owned I could do a B1, since the plastic was likely the same in both boxes. I used the Freightdog sheet on postwar Brits (72004S) for the markings, MSG and Black. I wasn't convinced by the indented tiny rivetting, but under a coat of paint it looked very good indeed. Overall I'm pretty pleased with this one. This is completed model #403 (#28 for the year), finished in June of 2012. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Callahan Posted July 23, 2012 Author Share Posted July 23, 2012 Many thanks H. I was happy enough about how the kit worked out that I'm still giving consideration to the Valom XF8B. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
