Hi all, this is my new project. In my opinion it is a nice kit with good details. Maybe not 100% correct, but still good. You can have a closer look at the kit and some information about the real fighter in our "New kits in the cave"-Site. I decided to build this one out of the box. Only adding things I have like left over PE or bits found in my household. Starting the kit I started thinning the plastic in every opening or intake, Here is the already reworked part Looks much better than before, right? A lot of holes can be found and the kit will win with that work The new look is much better and compares to the real one. After thinning down I used liquid clue to smooth the parts. The seat The seat is lacking any kind of seat belts I made the harness with tin foil and leftover PE´s Wing air inlets A mesh was added to the intake, after.... opening the holes 😉 The control stick The control stick ready for installation, note to myself: Remove the cat hair Original part is missing the fire button in the middle. Added some wiring. The dashboard The dashboard like Trumpeter designed it 0,3mm wire was use for the bezzel ring Much better and will look nice, once painted. The main cockpit Added some details to the aerial. Don´t know the real part, I wanted to make it look busy. The cockpit bottom, added the foot rest to the pedals Main Cockpit parts ready for paint. Hope you will follow my work here. Happy Modelling Pete
