Higgins Boat WWII LCVP (New Tool)

Airfix are my sleeper brand; I’ll snag one at random in between ‘major’ projects as a treat because they are so much fun to build. Relatively simple assembly, but it does take a little patience to get the hull lined up properly. A little time and effort and you end up with a museum-quality piece, further enhanced by the fact that Airfix consults various historians and curators for their model kits and it shows. The big thrill for me was the enclosed color schematic. I ended up framing it as a display piece in my craft room. Displays both the Royal Navy and US Normandy paint schemes. Can’t wait to order some 1/72 naval figures to finish it up. I’ll order another one.
