Hi muckers! As my Japanese vehicle now looks like a Godzilla and I don't want to stop to build, I started this (not so) little thing:    The first part was prepare the main body to receive the shiny things and, then, build the plastic parts and start to glue the PE:     Pete built one not a long time ago and as Pete is a HUGE talented modeller, I was consult his blog and saw the details he added. Pete is my main reference to build it. Thank you mate! This one will be entire OD because I like to see the white stars and stencils! Hope you like. ACC&?W

Please no popcorn. Can't stand the smell. Glue and paint, that's fine.. but popcorn ..  That Voyager set is ... heavy.

Hi people! Welcome! Popcorn isn't as bad as you think John! But you can bring some MM's, that I prefer!  The Voyager isn't as heavy as it looks. There are many big parts as mudguards, windshield frame and the cargo unit "fence". Some will be hard to bend, but I'm thinking about make a specific tool to them.

Welcome on board Guybro (the genius). The tires relly looks like a bike's tires  but I won't buy AM expensive resin tires... 'bout PE, there aren't to many parts and some I won't use because they won't make any diference in the final result. Some I'll just because the chalenge!
