After a long absence (10 years or so) from modelling I've decided to return to the hobby. This is my 3rd finished model since then.
The kit is OOB painted with Vallejo acrylics and weathered with oil wash. The build went fine almost without any putty,
great fit, thumbs up for Trumpeter. The canopy came with a mold line, a little sanding, buffing and future fixed it. The decaling stage went great, a little
Mr. Mark softer make them all sit tight.
The finished model is quite small, but it looks great on the shelf ;)
Hope you've enjoyed the gallery.
