John.R Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Hello,After purchasing this yesterday I've decided to use this kit as a boost/kick up the backside for the mojo, I'm aware my track record of starting builds but not finishing them isn't good but this is a kit I have wanted for a while now..

Will Vale Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 It's a beautiful aeroplane, I build the Trumpeter one in the same scale and absolutely loved it. Look forward to seeing how this comes out. Will 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John.R Posted March 5, 2016 Author Share Posted March 5, 2016 Hello,A little update due to being extremely busy in work and trying to arrange photo shoot's with bikes etc.After three or four trips to Hattons I finally remembered the correct Vallejo colour code for the interior green which is 70.838 "Emerald" so have assembled the pit and seated it into the bottom half of the fuselage, also I have test fitted the wings & top half to get a general idea on the size of the kit, will also be touching up the interior paint (even though you won't be able to see it properly).
