1/35th scale. It is an old kit from 1997. The wood base is a serving tray upside down. The black border is balsawood airbrushed black. The ground work is formed styerefoam shaped and covered with celluclay. I then airbrushed, highlighted, washed with oils, and then pigments.

Went together great. I just had a problem with the water can racks, the cans didn't fit. These dragon kits were top notch in the 90's.

This is the kit from 1997 and the fit is great! I remember in the 90's, Dragon kits were right on par with Tamiya.
