1/36 Monogram Scarab 38 KV Build thread

[JETJOCK]

Lets start a Build thread on the models......


I just sent two kits to a friend of mine who agreed to build one of them for me as an exact copy of my boat. I am sending him pictures as we speak-he agreed to make a sun pad and paint it like my full size boat.

Ok-who else is building? Lets see some pics!
