IJN Komatsu G40 (1/48)

Monogram 1:48 Boeing B-29 Superfortress

Bandai 1/48 AT-ST

I been away from the hobby for a bit and got the itch to build something again... I usually do 1/48 WWII aircraft so this was a bit of a change for me. The assembly of the kit was amazing everything snapped together like legos no glue was [...]
