Thanks guys. Well this one got really close to get binned a lot of times. Definitely not an easy kit. I actually dislike it. Can't wait to finish it, so i wont have to deal with it again. Suspension took about two days to get into place properly. Everything was falling apart all the time... Anyway, this is the progress so far plus an extra pic as a size indicator. 😛     |

Bronco kits look real good in the boxes, but then the fun begins  . Well done so far John  |

The main assembly is finished. Tomorrow i will spay the primer. Some minor gaps must be dealt with first.     Thank god the tracks are link and length although the attachment points are rather thick...  |

And we have primer. Way too hot today to paint anything more. Paint dries in the airbrush no matter how much thinner you use... 😁 Hopefully tomorrow.   |

Looks great with the primer coat and clearly you won the construction battle with the kit!

Nailed it John. Why don't you like Bronco kits? They are badly engineered. Also way too many pieces for rather small assemblies that don't actually offer more detail. The instructions are vague on a lot of cases. Now if you put that in relevance to their price tag, in my opinion,no they are not good kits. |

Thank you Gents for your kind words.
It could be better i guess, but it made me angry after a certain point (🤨😶), so i didn't want to put any more effort into it.
