Very detailed, easy instructions
To make realistic, painting is necessary.Need a lot of patience, especially with the decals. But overall great model, especially for a retired person like myself.

Good kit, Challenging but fun to build!
First thing I noticed is the instructions have been improved and there’s extra ordinances included. I’ve already built this same kit with a different decal set. Not too bad, but it does need work for best results. The fuselage and the landing components were the most challenging for me. I had to fill and reshape the nose because the plastic was not molded very well and the lading components have a lot of very small fragile parts. These small parts can get easily lost or broken. I pretty much sanded and smoothed out almost every part for best results. Laying the blue pinstripe decals was also a bit challenging because the reference pictures don’t line up correctly. The reference pictures have a smooth rounded tip instead of a point. The blue tip actually goes further up front on the this model. Once I did that, all the pinstripe decals lines up correctly. I painted it mostly with Vallejo and Testor’s model master acrylic paints. I did use my airbrush kit to paint the exterior. Overall I’m very happy with my final results on this one. Note: it comes with NO PILOT!
