Incredible paintwork Ricardo, very good.
I don't know if it's possible, but I think the black decals on the fuselage could use a bit of fading. The whole plane is (perfectly?) shaded and faded around the panels, and the black looks too uniform on the pictures.
Wish I could paint like that…..

I think she looks sweeet, you could always say that the markings are fresh, they don't repaint the whole plane when putting on new markings, but Martin does have a point, your call of course Ricardo. Well done 👍

Yes, I think you are both correct. The thing is these CAG planes are always clean. I would say the markings are OK, but the gray color got a bit too beaten...

Fantastic job with this nightmare! Today I worked with the air intakes and I used a lot of glue and putty 😄. I like so much your work with the joins. I can't see any imperfection on it.

Fantastic job Ricardo.
What do you think about the kit itself?
Can you recommend it to buy?

Thanks all. @Roge, I did loose a lot of detail on the grids that exist on the intakes, they can now barely be seen; @Sören, the parts are beautifully detailed, but I did not enjoy building this kit, because of awful fit throughout. Worse parts were the intakes and the nose (including windshield and HUD), they are not good at all. I can not recommend this kit.

Thx a lot for the honest answer Ricardo.
Then it is again waiting for a better F/A-18 A/B/C kit.... 🙁
