From the modeler…
Adapted from his FB-album – “I’m ridiculously proud to present my MG Zeta Plus C1! Oh gosh what a journey. Taking these photos I can tell you, was an incredibly fun thing to do. It’s like the final cherry on top for what was an insanely fulfilling journey of a project. I can honestly tell you I had tears of happy accomplishment LITERALLY filling in my eyes when I set it up at the GBWC.”
