The build was by the numbers apart from stuff previously mentioned.
One thing i did attend to was the external tank, the rough pattern meant to simulate the thermal coating was too
rough for me so it got a very indepth all over sanding down.
Mucho elbow grease later had the smooth surface i wanted.
One thing as a side note here, ain't it a bugger when your half way
through airbrushing the orange finish on the external tank and your compressor dies in a permenant fashion?
Gave me a weeks break while waiting for a replacement anyways so all was not lost.
I did say some uncomplementary things about compressor manufacturers though.
