This is the Hasegawa kit that I built for a Group Build on another forum, where you have to build a kit in 24 hours. I knocked this out in a touch under 18 hours and was just what I needed to get back into the swing of things after recently being sick as a dog. It's a nice little kit that pretty much falls together.

Great job Brad, a perfect pick me up kit to get you into the groove again after a horror week. They have a certain appeal these little buggers.
I feel depressed now, 18 hours from go to whoa. It takes me longer than that to pick a kit out of the stash, then there's the angst regarding colours & markings.

That's a lovely result, especially for a 24-hour build.
