stevej60 Posted December 27, 2021 Author Share Posted December 27, 2021 Hi folk's made a start yesterday cleaned up the main parts. A nicely detailed cockpit is supplied including two four piece pilots,dry brushed the highlights including the radiator matrix's and instrument panel. Final job after fitting the u/c bay between the upper and lower wings was to click in place the fuselage.As I'm doing the nightfighter version I did add the plates for stopping the exhaust glare reaching the pilot these part's are not in the kit. Should get some paint on tomorrow. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
