gryphon28 Posted November 26, 2020 Author Share Posted November 26, 2020 Thanks guys, comments really appreciated. It was a fun kit to build and very relaxing after an Eduard P51, which is a cracking kit too but requires a lot more attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you👍. I used the kit parts, fair to say some sanding was required! Rewarding though and at least the plastic is soft. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalkeEins Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 super ! .. ..a resin cowl might have a been a bit of a time-saver but isn't really necessary at all on this kit IMHO. That said you did well to keep all the nice upper fuselage cowl details intact! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenko Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 That's a fantastic build. Can I ask one question? I love the weathering, but wouldn't the markings also weather? Maybe at a different rate possibly. Something I've been wanting to ask for some time. Still a great build. Cheers Dick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
