This a quickish build of my 1976 Airfix 54mm Legionaire, this was to give me a break from the tiny links on the Universal carrier.
It doesn't look as rough to the naked eye but very rough in the enlarged pics 😳😳, The white will have more layers yet as will the blue and a few more details to add. I originally planned to change the head but went with the kit one.

Last Edit: Oct 18, 2020 9:39:48 GMT -6 by JED: spelling
