Luke Piewalker Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Finally... after a long and painful build, on several occasions I wished never to see the thing again... But it's finished... At least, I'm done with it And of course, having taken the pictures, I realised I'd forgotten the no step decals on the intakes... so i stuck them on... A lot of issues with dodgy fit, notably around the airbrake/canopy and the undercarriage doors. Instructions were a bit vague at times and the aicraft in the painting/decal instructions didn't seem to be the same one that I was looking at, all the panel lines in different places and things which made it hard to position some of the decals. If I was cylincal I would say they'd just slightly modified the drawing of the twin seater and decided it would do... Anyhoo, it meets my usual standard of 'ok from a distance'... 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobski Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 If I was cylincal I would say they'd just slightly modified the drawing of the twin seater and decided it would do... Don't know about tweaking the drawings (wouldn't surprise me), but they did use the same fuselage for both the single-seat and twin-seat aircraft, which is incorrect. Superb job on the model though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heloman1 Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Very nice indeed. I to looked at the Revell 48th kit and thought that's rather nice and then found the Revell 72nd kit and jumped at it, thinkg it was a reduced kit of the 48th. Little did I know it was a rebox of the Italeri kit and there started my nightmare. Thanks for sharing your pics. Colin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
