This is one I made just for fun.
A friend of mine had an idea to build a Tamiya Big-E. He bought the kit and
bought all the photo etched parts. I helped him buy a few packs of those
tidy little aircraft. Having examined the content, hey, they are
interesting. Then I had the hot idea of doing one which I originally
planned to placed on his ship. The plane was built out of the box, with Gold
Medal Model decals. I stretched a sprue to make the wires. This looks
good.
I would like to have the radome
and props made rotating, and cut the boarding door, open the front radome, etc.
etc. ............... ha ha, just kidding. This one is only a little bigger than
a penny. I don't think I could do more than I did.
This model is now in my
collection. My friend still has the kit, but it is still a kit only.
I am doing another E-2C in 1/144.
Hope I could show them side by side to you guys soon.
