woody37 Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 This takes me back, although my build as a wee lad wasn't anywhere up to this standard, lovely finish 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stever219 Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 Compressor catastrophe aside that old kit buffs up quite well. Like woody37 I had one of these a long time ago and certainly didn’t do as well as this with it. Definitely one of those kits I’d love to have another go at. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmyg352 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 I'm sure I've got one of those in the stash somewhere & I guarantee it won't look that nice if I ever get round to doing it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milktrip Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Great job and great save! I remember loving this plane when I was younger and always wanting to build this kit but never did. Thanks for sharing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
