stevehnz Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 That is rapid progress, it sure looks as though it all fits well which helps. Some nice detail painting on the interior. Steve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some nice detail painting on the interior. Steve. For a kit that dates back to 1977 the fit is ok. The engine installment is a bit tricky though because there aren´t really good attachment points in the cowl so you gotta take care to align the engine right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reini78 Posted October 19, 2020 Author Share Posted October 19, 2020 the old Hasegawa decals aren´t realy good anymore, need a long time to losen from the paper and during that they crack have to do some repainting DSC_0003 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr DSC_0004 by grimreaper110, auf Flickr 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luftmodels Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Very nice paint work! Great job! 👍🏻 However, in case of old decals, I would use paint and making tape in order to get these red and white lines which are quite easy to make because these are just straight lines. Just my opinion. 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Law Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 Did your dad finish this one Reini? It's looking very good. I've been stuck over at the BOB GB foe quite awhile so I'm catching up. What scale is it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This edition of the Hasegawa kit is hard to get because it was a limited one and there are no decals in 1/48. But printscale has 1/72 ones.
