Heavy Metal Samurai

Well that didn't take me long! the building of type 90 is basically finished bar sorting out stowage and figures. This is why Tamiya kits are by far some of the best there is. It's the ease of construction, clear instructions and pure quality of the parts. You just can't beat em! I had to make a new mantlet to turret roof cover as the original was lost somewhere in time. Lead foil and plastic soon sorted that problem out. The Eduard etch when used really enhances the already fine kit and I also used a few bits from the spares box such as the chains on the smoke dischargers.
