That's a beut Andre, a model that I keep seeing and thinking I ought to get it. What was the build like? Can't imagine it was bad being Meng. Also can I ask what particular model air colours you used for the main dark and light grey cam?
Regards, Dave.

Hello Dave,

Thanks for replying. About the kit, it is an easy kit to build, Fits together pretty wel. My only problem was with the cockpit. but that was probably because i used the PE from eduard, and i probably did something wrong, and i could not get the halves to fit together.. But that was my mistake..

I will look up the colors for you, but the manual is somewhere, and i cannot find it right now. I will look for it tommorow..

Greetzzz,

André
