The Little World

I am alternately delighted and dismayed when I see the interior of a model kit.

It may be anything from fully-detailed to absolutely bare, and even the walls of the cockpit or interior of the tank or car may be problematical. There are moulds that concentrate their ijector pin towers right where you are looking.

This ICM kit has a compromise – a well-fitted driver’s compartment, a complex gun breech, and a wonderful little wireless set. But the rest of the interior is bare – begging the question whether after-market sets are being sold to fill it up.

Not sold to me, and probably not on the Western Australian market anyway. I will open the driver’s and commander’s hatches in the final display and there will be enough to see.
