I love that bird and your model is fantastic. Now... where do you put a 24in wingspan model is what I want to know.

Thanks Lucky, The kit has some flaws fit wise. If you love sanding filler and rescirbing panel lines then this is a kit for you. The fuse had a wierd bow in top and bottm ,the tail to gondola fit was a good 1/4-1/8 " out and the wing roots required a good amount of filler as well. The real kick in the dangly bits was the canopy was out of shape and even with a little heat to reshape it the part crazed
heres a few of the trouble spots

Excellent, superb job. The camo is nicely done, and weathering on the panels looks good. Well done.
