The armored car kits rolled forth in profusion this past couple of years. The renewed interest in The War to End All Wars proved most welcome to the modeling community.

I have a few Meng kits done, and I have enjoyed them. This one is extremely well-detailed. There are many very delicate parts, but Meng’s engineering made it as likely as possible that removal from the sprues could be accomplished without damaging them.

I was concerned that the photoetch wheel spokes would get the better of me, but after a few, they were easy. This kit was selected for me to build while recuperating from some surgery a few months ago, and it proved a nice relaxing exercise. Meng kits are getting better and better.
