Aka the only Herkules I'm ever likely to build.

Nude shot from earlier in the week showing the filer work on the top decking.  Looks bad?  Underneath was even worse.

That's a BIG aeroplane! 

Got to love those instruction "manuals"

Yeah, Mach 2 have minimalising the manuals down to a fine art, one page only, and only ONE side too! 

In the last twelve months I looked in a manual ... maybe twice

I had a nice conversation with Mr Mach 2 at Telford one year, lovely man 

It has the same size footprint as a Condor.

That's a big model 
It's looking like crap at the mo Lee but I do get the feeling it's gonna look many times better once your done with it 

I'm taking it from you guys that Mach 2 is not what you'd call a quality kitset ?

It certainty isn't Tamigawa, is it? Then again - I doubt I'll ever see a mainstream manufacturer do a Comet C.4 kit, so I'll take what I can get and be grateful. Also, in Mach 2's defence, I find their plastic reasonably obliging, so it's not that bad working with.

Most Mach 2 kits are quite basic, with some fit issues (some with major issues) but some of the subjects are the only ones you may find, so I salute them for bringing some things that your will not see from any other manufactures, or only in rare and expensive resin kits.   

Looking forward to seeing some more of this one. I've got my own version in the half-built pile. Need to get on that

Done one Mach 2 kit.. I considered the piece of paper included with the Flash at the end of large sprue gates as "general construction hints"

Back on the model at hand... go you good thing 

Well, it seems they give you half an airplane so half an instruction sheet?

Totally agree
