Aoshima 1/24 Nissan Elgrand.
Built OOB (apart from blending in and painting the side windows and losing the rear seats) with transfers from Hasegawa "Summer Girls" VW Type 2 Van.
The kit has a custom grille treatment which I had intended to use.  However fit was problematic due to the thickness of my paint and as I was on a deadline for a show I removed it and used the stock grille you see here intending to fit the custom one after the show.  TBH it doesn't look too bad so i'm not rushing.

Kerbside kit.  No engine detail just what is moulded with the chassis.  This is mostly paint detailing.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

That looks very 'cool' Fred, if I'm allowed to say that in this temperature! (Phew.......)
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.
