Alpha Delta 210 Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 Hi This was a speed-build and was completed from Easter Sunday into Easter Monday. A thoroughly enjoyable build. The WIP thread is here. The penny is added for scale! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Latinbear Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 A terrific job and looks great with the decals on; really brings the aircraft to life. How fiddly was it to apply them given the size of the kit? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pleased you like it. A terrific job and looks great with the decals on; really brings the aircraft to life. How fiddly was it to apply them given the size of the kit? Thanks for taking the time to comment Latinbear, The decals performed flawlessly and were not too thick, like the Hasegawa decals of old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpha Delta 210 Posted April 23, 2014 Author Share Posted April 23, 2014 It's cute Are you going to do the Japanese one to sit beside it? Hi Jessica. I have now bought a jar of Tamiya Navy Green,so expect to see the Japanese version in RFI very soon! IMPRESSIVE build.. KOOL!!! As ever, thanks for your enthusiasm Houston. Brilliant build! Sat next to the penny just shows how small it is yet it looks so big! Thanks jer. It sure is tiny which is why I didn't want to overdo the weathering. I might re-visit that aspect when I have built the Japanese version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
