I enjoyed building this kit much less than I thought I would. It's not a bad kit--actually, it's quite excellent. The detail is excellent, and it's a great subject. The problem was one, no interior painting guide, and two, it was a bit beyond my skill level. And I feel that a lot of this, involving parts that fit, but were joined in such a flimsy or ambiguous way, led to a feeling that I wasn't being challenged as a modeler so much as tested. I felt the MBL were throwing me curve balls all the time with a gleeful, "Let's see if he can attach these parts!" I understand that I'm mainly criticizing my own skill level, not the quality of the kit, but inexperienced modelers should beware!

Many thanks for the heads up, Mark. That would be six month's of my Saturday mornings to complete this one! Any piccies of your work, please?

As I say, an excellent kit but perhaps not quite compatible with my skills. I liked the result, but there was much more grousing during the build than I wanted there to be. I don't think there's another 1/35 Dingo available--maybe an old one from Tamiya.
