Neil PatrickGreat start. Following with interest. A pretty good kit for the time with one of Airfix's best box arts too IMHO. RIP Roy Cross.

Amenofys AuthorFinally finished. It has been a long and hard job. Apart from the re-engraving, almost everything had to be filed, adjusted, cut or puttyed. The transparent parts that are glued before closing the fuselage have not turned out very well, since the masks did not fit and had bubbles. I have also had problems with the adjustment of the masks in the other transparent parts, but at least I have been able to complete them with Tamiya tape. The amount of ballast has been enormous (28 gr) and even so, the balance is very precarious (I was afraid to add more because the landing gear legs are very fragile). I think the homemade decals have turned out great. Despite all the problems and defects in the finish, I am quite satisfied with the result. Now, I need to rest and take it easy. The next model I will build will be a Hobby Boss. 🙂. Thanks everyone for the likes, comments and follow-ups.
