  Hi my name is Mark, I am 34 and have recently got back into the hobby and this is the first kit that I have completed since I was 16 when I slapped together (and I mean slapped together!) a few of the old monogram kits, I vaguely remember having an F-14, F-20 tiger and a F-111 hanging from my celling.

  Anyway I have learnt alot from reading the ARC builds and gallery and present  the Tamiya 1/48 Shiden. It was a first on many accounts- First use of an airbrush, paint chipping, canopy masking using Parafilm etc.

  It  has quite a few things that I would like to improve on, but its's a learning process.

  My next build will probably be an old Monogram F-80 so i can learn how to use my Alclad II and re-scribing panel lines.
