Nice one Chuck!

This is an excellent intro to building short-run kits, which offer so much scope for exciting subjects unavailable as mainstream kits. "Managing expectations" is a perfectly chosen term - and, so long as people approach short-run kits with some idea of what to expect, there's a huge amount of satisfaction to be gained from building them.

All the best

Chuck,

Very nice article....and oh so true.

I'm currently working on an Anigrad kit (I have a couple of other "short-runners" on the shelf) and the philosophy of managing expectations is right on. They are unique vehicles, which in my opinion is the one reason I'm willing to "expend extra energy" (E-cubed).

I'm looking forward to finishing this one up (for obvious reasons) and working on the B&V armored glider (plastic and resin).
