ErikT Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 I built this one so long ago that I can't even remember what company made the kit! I do remember that the actual aircraft wasn't even in full production yet when I built the kit. I added a few minor details here and there, but it's pretty much straight out of the box, and painted by brush since I didn't have an airbrush back then. I discovered it in pieces in one of my storage boxes under the garage stairs a couple years back, did some surgery and hooked it up to a defibrillator, and then added some weathering to it since it looked too clean. Overall I'm surprised I was able to resurrect one of my earliest models that's probably 20+ years old, cracked canopy and all! 30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It must be the Italeri kit - or perhaps the Revell reissue of the same kit. Anyway - it looks great! Cheers Hans J 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Coombs Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 I also reckon that's the Italeri kit - the weapons fit looks very familiar! A fine job of rejuvenation there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binbrook87 Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 Brilliant work with the hairy stick....i would have swore it was airbrush if you'd not said anything. Nicely resurrected 👍👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
