This is my 2023 build-up of the model. I wanted to revisit my modeling youth by starting at the beginning again after decades of improvement.

I went for more subtle coloring in 2023, and I tried like heck to deal with the ill-fitting pieces and the seams.

I added a bit of modeling paste to the headstone to give it a mossy look.

 

This is my buildup from around 2000. I think I've improved a bit over the years.

As of 2010, it is not known whether or not this painting was destroyed in 1969 when Aurora rereleased these models as glow versions.

More info follows below.
