Ohboy! I know i can build and paint better then this. :oops: Anyway, i added a few aftermarket parts, jetnozzle, ladder and figure. Also used some glow in the dark paint om certain areas, MFD´s and formation lights. This was the first time i ever worked with PE and a little Resin (pilot). Enough of the excuses, here is the "finished" aircraft. :)

Glow in the dark paint is genius, I'm definitely going to try that idea! Great build, I would be proud of that one :thumb1:

Thank you very much! :bow::

The idea of using glow in the dark paint have been brewing in my mind for awhile. Really wanted to test it. Bit surprised though that i have not seen it used among fellow modellers. :)
