While I wait for some paint to dry on other builds, thought I would crack this model open and start the build. Bandai's 1/12 C-3PO, still a long way to go. This is a Japan import, so barely any English in the directions which adds to the challenge....

Step 1 while it was in progress and most of Step 2 completed, taking a break from some of these tiny parts for the night. Fun model so far!

that looks a very nice model indeed and the plating looks good - saves a lot of painting.

Great start, these Bandai Star Wars kits are fantastic! You should check out some of the other ones they do, they've all got a great reputation for being good kits Cool
