thommo Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 This is the other kit our eldest daughter got me a few Xmas's ago. An absolute joy to make, it just fell together. I added a few details to the cockpit. 39 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Dyck Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 Very nice! The silver turns out very realistic. Wich brand did you use , if I may ask? Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackroadkill Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 This is a lovely little kit, isn't it. I built one a while back and loved it. Yours has come together really nicely indeed, and the extra fettling in the cockpit was well worth the effort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy I knew someone would ask that. I was trying to remember when I was snapping the pics. I'm pretty sure it is Alclad, probably aluminium. And an oil wash in the panel lines. Can't even remember what I added to the cockpit. Bang seat handles obviously, but not sure what else. The thing went so well (unusual for me), I just can't recall. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Slowbuild Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 Love it! Wish I’d had the courage to pose the canopy open on mine. Have you added a wiper to the windscreen? Don’t recall one in the kit. This is the sort of added detail I like, but in this case overlooked on my build Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One critisim the intakes appear to be upside down. Are they? That'll teach me for not looking at the instructions properly....though I notice plenty of others have them upside down as well!
