shan Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Hi all, built this one out of the box, except for the Eduard cockpit instruments. i came across an article on using aluminum foil instead of painting and i was quite intrigued by it , so i decided to give it a go at it. hope you like it. 38 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exdraken Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 looks great! your are definitely a great model builder!! some of your photos cold be a bit sharper though probably try to use more light, or daylight or try to hold your camera more steady..... another thing I noticed if you do not mind, I think the exhaust nozzle sits too far out and is slightly rotated.... easy to correct if you still want to to ! cheers, Werner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
