-===== Build Log ===== 
- 
-Bought a **pair** of Harkonnen kits to go along with a **single** Atreides kit to go on my display shelf in September. I've been a fan of the Dune series since reading the original trilogy (and most of the prequel series') in my early teens. 
- 
-I admit to having a real soft spot to the 80's movie by David Lynch, but the 2021 release directed by Denis Villeneuve is a visual masterpiece. The Ornithopters in particular are especially well designed and form the backdrop of a number of stunning action set-pieces of the film. 
- 
-The models are lovely, and very faithful to the designs seen in the film. These are the smaller scale kits, with them being //also// available in a 1/72 scale with a wingspan of more than //72cm!//. Reddit and other sources seem to put these around the 1/300 scale mark. 
- 
-I'm imagining these, when finished, to be displayed alongside the Atreides design, perhaps pursuing the lone Atreides craft down through a desert canyon.
