TJ, Kari, John, Gary, and Stuart, thank you one and all. It’s good to be wrapping this one up!

Thanks Mike. It’s a weak kit, and the photos make it look better than it is in person…

Nearing the finish line now…. Undersides flat coated, landing gear and ordnance added…

I just need to add a few breakables to the topside, touch up paint from that as needed, do the flat coat there, and remove the masking. Just another couple of short sessions.

That looks very jetty, in a great way! Well done.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..
Re: What's on your work bench atm ?
That looks bloody awesome mate, for such a shoddy kit, you're making a great job of it!

Kari, Lyle, and Stuart, thank you.
Final update for the evening… Last breakable bits glued into place- the nose probe and the antenna on the spine.

Next is touch up paint as needed, flat coat, pull off the canopy masking and finito!

It is indeed a shoddy kit. Up close I see all the kit flaws. But if you know nothing about the type, it looks ok.Stuart wrote:That looks bloody awesome mate, for such a shoddy kit, you're making a great job of it!
