Hi guys.
Just finished one of my e-bay rescues, a dreadnought I nabbed for about 2 euro.
It's one thing to paint a model from scratch, a model that only you have had a hand in, but it is quite another to redo something that has been… let's just call it "blundered". So now I'm curious, how have you guys fared in rescuing models abandoned by others?
