MG Kampfer

This was a fun kit to work on, but a bit of an ordeal at the same time. My friend Brandon who takes photos of my kits picked up this guy at a convention. It’s his favorite kit and I was excited to repay him for all the great photos he’s taken for me over the years. The LED mod was fairly straightforward and I put a ton of time into getting the weapons as good as I could, but things went south when I got going on the candy coat. Long story short, I attempted to strip some parts that didn’t come out so well with lacquer thinner from the hardware store which basically melted them beyond repair. Suddenly, I had to buy a whole other kit just to replace those parts. Once I got the replacement kit, I was much more careful and the results speak for themselves.
