I was pleasantly surprised by how good a straight build of the stock Postage Stamp barn kit looks. I built this for a Postage Stamp collector.


I'm pleasantly surprised too.  Is that an original Postage Stamp kit?

That Model Power rebrand doesn't look nearly as good in its box picture.

It's amazing what just some paint can do.
