I got this quite a while back from E2046. I wasn't really looking foward to building it because the casting wasn't that good. There was alot of orange peel texture on the surfaces which equates to alot of sanding.
There was another problem on the kit. The tighs. For a kit of this size, the tighs are minutely small.
As you can see from here

So the whole thing looked stubby. Therefore I had to lengthen them. I bolted some pla rods to the top of the tighs and pla plates on top of the rods and slapped a ton of epoxy putty on it

and then sanded them into shape.

which didn't turn out too badly. More WIP as soon as I buff out all the orange peel surfaces
