I decided to do a second build for this GB, despite the fact that I am no where near done on the first.
Like the Bristol 138A I am already working on, this kit had also been starring me down, just asking to be built.
The Testors kit has only a few parts, and would be a very simple build if the wings actually mated to the fuselage well.
I have a couple of these, from different boxings. and although the color and the softness of the plastic may change, the fit doesn't get any better.
One good thing about the newer kits, they look like they have MUCH better decals.
So I am building a bit of a mix, the old silver plastic one, with harder plastic, but using the new decals.
The kit.....
The huge gap...
The poor fit...
and of course the poor fit on the left wing doesn't match the poor fit on the right wing...
The fun begins!!
