1/48 Shooting Star

[mungo1974]

Hi peeps,

I seem to be on a 50's jet vibe of late,so dug a old Monogram P-80 out the stash.

Nice model but its reminded me that i hate rescribing kits!

All Bloody afternoon and ive still got to do all the smaller access panels.....dont know if i can face doing the rivets.

I don't like rescribing either. Happy to do so to restore a panel line after sanding etc, but a whole kit? Life's too short and the stash is too big.

However, I hope the result repays your efforts Mungo. Stick with it; like many of those old Monogram kits it builds up into a good model, even if it's not the latest Hobbytrump (the term "Tamigawa" is so last year ... ). Please post some pix when it's done.
