airfixpeter Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 (edited) This kit was big challenge notably as it has five fuselage sections none of them lined up witch ment a lot of sanding and filling and more sanding and filling so a lot of detail was lost. The decals were after market as the kit ones have got the tendency to dry brittle and drop off. Also included a video link.

A few years ago, I built the Heller Concorde in 1:72. The decals were brittle to apply then, and now they are flaking off. I wish I had known Heller had problematic decals before! For some reason, the video says it's unavailable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
