RMCS Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 This was a shocker... I was aware this Revell kit had its issues, but it fought me all the way... despite that quite happy with the final look (from a distance).. despite my ineptitude to get the fuel tank fins on the right way round (too late now to do anything about that).. She's been enhanced with a resin cockpit and a few other bits and bobs off the pylons. 44 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAT69 Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 If one of my kits that fought me came out that nice I'd be ecstatic! I really like the detail work, the paint and weathering and the very clean and polished clear pieces. Your work is magnificent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still have the Eduard GR1 (with the Revell molding).. to do at some point.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
