geoffrey abreu Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 Just finished getting the landing gear on today. Painted with Gunze paint and Allclad on the exhaust panels thanks to fellow ARCer Ben Pada (wingman47) Now time for gloss coat and decals. A very nice enjoyable kit to build. This one is OOB.

HOLMES Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 WOW!! LOOKS AWESOME...Brilliant finish......good enough to eat!(not that I would you know!). Can't wait for the finished model. :) H. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
geoffrey abreu Posted January 1, 2007 Author Share Posted January 1, 2007 Echo that :wacko: How did you find the kit went together, Geoffrey? The kit went together great Patrick. Just a tiny bit of filler needed at the wing roots and at the gun access panels on the underside but this is probably due more to me than the kit itself. It goes together in just a few days Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The kit is a real pleasure to build. As stated above, there was a tiny amount of filler needed at the wing roots. It should look great with all of that detail you are going to put into it!
