Here is my copy of Great White Miniatures Abrogator kit that arrived in the post this morning. Purchased it on Thursday and two days later resin in hand.. Happy with that.

My first impressions of the kit are overall really happy. Small casting blocks (in sensible places), and no casting flaws at all.... Anyway here are the first pictures...






The kit cost me £15.00 + £3.50 P&P, which I think I quite reasonable for a quite large lump of resin....

It went together easier than most, if not all the Forgeworld kits i've had to fight in the past..

WHite was then sprayed over this, and once dry was removed using a wet paint brush.... A little mud later and....

All told this took 3 days, of which 3 hours were actually spent modelling.... (My OIC Domestic is a bit of a task master) A great little conversion kit, so much so, i have ordered another one, which should be here in a day or so...

Cheers

Wow, that's really nice work. I'm glad this kit is getting some good reviews out there. It's responses like this that spurs a sculptor like me on.
