I never had the patience for Pocher kits, but they sure are beautiful.
HOWEVER, this MM kit is definitely
not.
I think I have a winner here. I don't know that I have actually seen a kit with as bad a fit as this one. The frame and hood went together just fine (one short piece of trim on the hood).
But then the nightmare began. Now I'll be the first to admit that I'm not a great paper model builder, but I'm not horrible either. Why then when I was as careful as I could be did the next step come out like this??!?!?!
Almost nothing fit! Very little aligned at all with anything else, and the rear body panel (I won't even show you that one!) overlapped the side pieces by at least 1/4"!
The rounded sides of the body are too rounded as designed and as you can see, they have to be re-flattened by spreading the edges...and they still don't fit.
This is actually the second worst-fitting kit I've ever seen. I am sorely tempted to toss this one and find something else to try.
Ok, enough griping. Maybe I can cut some fake trim pieces to hide the gaps... oh, wait, that would be modifying the kit, wouldn't it?
