I'm impressed with these Trumpeter kits, having not built one of their kits before. There's loads of detail and the parts fit together well, with very little flash. I haven't started on the PE parts yet though.

I've decided to glue the top and bottom hull parts before tackling the PE parts to save damage. I glued the front and back parts of hull over two nights to make sure of a tidy join, using plenty of tape.

Finished! I'll add some baggage if I can find some modern Italian kit.
