Hi Mr D 👋 yeah it's a cute airframe! Especially when you sit it next to a same scale F-14! Hahaha. Thanks for your compliment and interest 👍

I built this kit not long after I returned to modelling. It was a bit of a painful experience and I haven't gone near Special Hobby since. 😄
No doubt you'll make a much better job of yours.

Hi Gorby and Denis 🙂 Thanks for stopping by with comments and info. @gorby, yes this is the first Special Hobby kit I've attempted. I'm not confident I will accomplish what you kindly say. Nevertheless (with your talent) it's very kind of you to even suggest - I'm chuffed! @Denis, I'll definitely follow your advice, metal finish (not yellow) it is for the wheel wells. Thanks also to those who've liked 🙂 👍

Going through your photos and noticed you had do, a lot of repair work before moving forward. However your end result is outstanding.

That will be an important piece of history for your collection 👍 And you managed a crude kit. I would never have thought of using cable ties 🙂

Welcome mates! Thank you for your interest, your kind comments and observations. Yes, I'm not sure I'm a fan of Special Hobby kits! But I'm giving it my best shot. Thanks also to those who've liked, I'm nearing the finish line on this one now 🙂 👍

Album info

The Gloster E.28/39, (also referred to as the Gloster Whittle, Gloster Pioneer, or Gloster G.40) was the first British turbojet-engined aircraft first flying in 1941. It was the third turbojet aircraft to fly after the German Heinkel He 178 (1939) and Heinkel He 280 (1941), the Italian Caproni Campini N.1 of 1940 being a motor jet and not a true turbojet.
