Second of Aurora's Musketeers. Porthos was issued in 1959 and I bought mine from the same estate sale as my Athos. This model was also a glue bomb and any painting attempted was very poor. The painting might have been better than I give it credit for, but I was unable to tell because it was painted some years ago with acrylic on raw plastic, and we all know how well that works out. I was fortunate enough to be able to disassemble it, clean it up, paint it and re-assemble the kit.
Below is an image of the box (as far as I know, these kits were never re-released after this initial release) with a photo of my built up below it.
Diorama Diary
Moving right along, I have the basics done on the mother and am going to continue on the little girl as soon as I finish touching up her mom.
