I recently built this same kit. A nightmare. Never have seen so much flash on a kit. Almost nothing went together well. A wrestling match start to finish! Yours looks much better.

Thanks. It is a nightmare kit... Hoping to get the newer 1:24 scale version.

Wow, you added so much to it. Great job. Airfix have just announced a new tool 1/43 version of the DB5 - sure to be a much better kit.

Can't believe that such a crappy kit can be turned into such a nice model. 👍👏👏Watching your built has encouraged me to have a another go at this kit. The 4 supports for the roof of the car are all twisted and I have to make new ones.

It is a terrible model but there are so few options for the DB5… I had to give it a try!

Thanks. It is a terrible model! Very few options for a DB5 though, sadly.

@@MDScaleModels I love that you make rewievs from a standard box issue of a model. It's no point to watch Flory models with a show quality issue of a model. Than you go and buy it yourself...and it's a crap. With loads of flash and ejector pins on the worst places. Yeah, Airfix is like Revell. Can be grate. Old ones for sure...90's till 2000. And can be crap.

@@urossamec5817 Gotta agree whith you! And yes, MD saved the little thing... MD, the Molotow paint sprays beautifully if you open the pen, or better, acquire a refill bottle... Good thinner is Dupont DX7000, dry 2 weeks before CCoat...

Nice build, bought one for a friends 60th birthday present in July, and still in progress. Is that 1 or 2mm White Styrene Sheet for the additional parts on the chassis? As you say not much out there in this model.
@MDScaleModels2 жыл бұрын
Thanks... 1mm as it's more flexible around the wheel well.

It is not a great model at all. Requires a lot of work!

I’m glad I didn’t buy them, excited for the triumph herald and beach buggy

I might get it later on when I’m better at making kits for a challenge
