BlackMike Models 9,255 Posted December 6, 2022 Report Share Posted December 6, 2022 It's not one of Tamiya's best kits (accuracy wise) but you've turned it out very nicely indeed. Duncan B Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Duncan B Just shows how naive I am, always thought Tamiya were bombproof. What are the issues please Duncan? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

What are the issues please Duncan? The wheels (too small) and the wheel wells (enclosed) are wrong for the Dora. It's by no means a kit to avoid but there are now more accurate kits out there for less than Tamiya prices. I have one here that I use as a paint mule.

I enjoyed the Eduard one, the Weekend edition or a Revell rebox can be had cheaply enough. it's not without it's faults either and is a more fiddly build than the Tamiya but does look the part. Alternatively go for the Tamiya and get a set of after market wheels if you are not bothered about the closed off wheel wells, it's a quick and painless build.
