Although these are tricky kits it has been a lot of fun to build.

For anyone else that ventures into building one of these then make sure you do a lot of dry fitting and examining of the parts as the instructions are pretty vague in some places Blink

The detail achieved in the kit is quite remarkable Cool

A fabulous end result Dave and some great photos to show it off, it looks like one of those aircraft cutaway drawings in 3D. I've enjoyed watching this come together, so very well done and thanks for sharing it with us. Cool ThumpUp

Any plans to do another Jasmine model in the future, or has this one put you off for good? Blink BigGrin

Thank you all for stopping by and your comments.

I have thought about one of their other kits but none of their other kits are appealing to me, will keep an eye out for any future release as I am keen to build another BigGrin Cool

Great result

I quite like the look of this kit


If you are searching for their web site make sure you search for Jasmine models and not jasmin models especially if you are at work

Thanks Steve, it take a bit of time and several moments of walking away or risk smashing a fist done on it LOL The instructions aren't the best either which don't help
