Bland Livery, An Exercise in Futility

Bland Livery

In some articles, I try to show new techniques, or to make something out of nothing. Here, I tried to take a crappy dollar store kit and make it into something grander.

In the end, almost nothing of the old kit was left, but it still wound up limiting the scope of the build. Even worse, I could have shaved hours off the job by scratch-building.

Sigh. Learn from my mistakes.

It turned out OK, but could have been so much more.

Have a Look!
