Thanks chaps. The filling and sanding was fairly simple - just a dab of 'Milliput', moulded and smoothed over with a wet finger tip, then lightly sanded when set.
Not got much more to show as yet, but might have some pics either later, or by tomorrow.
Jan, the Hasegawa 1/32nd scale Starfighter isn't bad - exceptional in its day. Raised panel lines, but very fine and easily re-engraved, some basic but fairly good internal detail, including the Vulcan gun, and a full engine and radar, with removable tail and nose cone. The latter are not really my cup of tea/coffee/T-Stoff, but I think the tail could be made removable without showing a nasty joint line if brass pins were used to aid location.
One point I'm not that keen on is the seat - the seat pan is moulded as part of the cockpit floor - but it's not a major problem, just makes things awkward for detailing.
The decals are 'so so', being for a German Marineflieger or JASDF version in my kit, with a small Danish (National markings only) sheet in my box too, although other versions were issued with various releases, but bear in mind the age of this release and therefore the quality of the decals. I bought a set of Dutch Air Force decals from ... er... 'Dutch Decals' for mine, which looks very good indeed.
