this all modeling hobby started when I was 10 with some aircraft models,
and now, after 20 years break, I mostly build cars and bikes. this model was given to my by a friend how started it but got bored just after a few hours into the build and asked me to finish it for him.
took me about 2 months, kit quatily wasn't too bad but needed a lot of putty work and much much more sanding.... anyway, I'm happy with the result but don't think I get back to plans again... :icon16:


thanks for looking!
have a nice one!

Cheers,

I think it looks sweet! Those 1/32 scale planes are HUGE, and so is the price tag
unfortunetly...

Great looking modell! Very clean buid!
One comment on the painted fuselaj, try next time a "faided" demarcation between paints, that is very easy to do with blue tack or if you have a good airbrush try free hand without masks.

very nice pictures.thanks for showing us.

:banghead:excellent
