OK got a bit of time so got this one moving. Got to say the paints for brush painting is very smooth much like Tamiya, not as thick as Vallejo

The German grey as used on the seat will work great for tyres for other builds

The real thing, you can see the off white very clear in this photo, I've seen a lot of builds using cream or grey as the base colour

What I find weird with this kit is the sprues have no numbers for parts on them, you have to read the instructions to get part number, never seen it before, wonder if all their kits are the same

Robbo, I had not encountered that on their 1.48th scale stuff, regarding the part numbers. I am getting the blue question mark for the photos so I will check back.

.....and just like that, the photos appear. Nice clampage on the fuselage and sorry the Rug Ness Monster got a missile fin. Great save, though.

Not very good cockpit but it is about the size of your thumb nail , I've done myself no favours by zooming in so much Cockpit closed up and wing on, time to walk away and let it set

The cockpit looks more than good enough Ian.

It is so small Guy you can hardly see it. Last one I promise. Can you tell I'm enjoying this one?
