Cool project Mark, those Steigers are absolutely massive. Remember seeing them in the late 70's/ early 80's as my Dad was a farmer an used to go with him to machinery shows! Regards. Andy

Absolutely stunning finish Peter and thank you for sharing your final finish techniques. Regards. Andy -
Nice start Ernie, you have a fine selection of AM for this one, after John's epic build I pulled my part completed build out and had a look at getting the Infinity bomb bay fitted...... Hmm interesting stuff so will wait and follow your build as a guide at the moment but itooks tricky with a false lower floor needed to be fitted from plastic card to tidy everything up as I'm sure you will see. Looking forward to you progress on this one. Regards. Andy

Looking good John, regarding the undercarriage I purchased these Reskit wheels for my build They are beautifbeautifully cast with smooth tread and think they also dona set with diamond tread. Will make a big difference over the kit parts. Regards. Andy -

Peter, it is the build from hell as there is actually nothing that fits nicely and the clean up required for each part is pretty soul destroying to be honest. I'd take s nice early 70's Tamiya kit any day over this one! John, you really are doing an amazing job and I salute you! Regards. Andy -

Now that really sucks John and a hard-core rework needed to get the fit! Regards. Andy -

I've built a few HpH resin kits before and I've found them on the most very enjoyable but this Helldiver is a pretty painful experience because nothing really fits, huge amounts of flash and misaligned moulds in a few areas. Couple that with a grainy feel to the plastic along with poorly defined detail it's real winner. Regards. Andy -

Couldn't agree more and sadly looking at pictures of the Vampire it looks like more of the same. Personally I wouldn't buy another Infinity kit ( I think they used the word Infinity because the erm...fun just goes on for ever and ever) until I have seen plenty of positive build threads of a given subject. Regards. Andy -

Wait til you test fit the gunners sliding canopy! Absolutely nothing is straight forward on this kit at all as you mentioned. Regards. Andy
