Well, I said I love a challenge, and the Farpro (Aoshima) C6N1 Saiun is certainly that! This kit is a real mixed bag; some parts fit well, others are quite bad, and the sink marks make everything more interesting!

The good thing is that I’ve gotten it to look something like an airplane, which is really is small feat given how this thing is designed! I’ve gotten the “cockpit” done too, although it’s only a floor and a couple headrests, I think it will do the job; after all, the transparency for the canopy isn’t great!

For all those who said not to bother, I can’t blame you! However, I’m just about ready for paint, so I think it’s safe to say this one is over the hump!

Check out my progress on this little chestnut here:
