Build thread
http://www.intscalemodeller.com/viewtop ... 34#p259234.
Humbrol acrylic was horrible stuff but the only correct colour out there. Decals as mentioned in the build thread were a nightmare, very brittle. Not an utterly terrible kit but I wouldn't buy it again.

You wouldn't no you had trouble with the kit or the decals by the end result, looks like a red arrow to me!

Thanks Gav. It does I suppose, it just wasn't the best build in the world.

Well persevered and nicely finished Avgas - I loved the 50th Anniversary tails on the Reds.

Nice! I'm currently working on the 1/72 version (half-heartedly!)

Thanks guys. I've been following the 1/72 build Rob. Looks very much like the same kit that's been blown up, or down depending which way you look at it.
