Nick Aguilar/Taigen welded firefly ic

Post by tomhugill »

Here's an alternative, rarely seen resin firefly kit. Nick Aguilar does both the small hatch hull and the turret, the hull comes as the a3 variety so a shapeways, Tamiya or mato deck swap will be needed. However the casting quality is a step above most I've seen, the detail is amazing, it even comes with the British fire extinguishers, a 30cal and some ruck sacks.ImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImage

Only pulling your leg Tom ;)

I'm guessing this hull is normal length, not the A4 length.

Also, do you know if Nick just sells this turret?
