This one is finally done, it's a pretty old Eduard kit so the fit is not to their current standard. So it needed a bit of filling and sanding, but overall it's a good little kit. The original plan was to do the tropical version, but I thought it would be a bit more odd to do a Japanese one instead. All the markings where painted on except the first aid decal that where used from the kit decals and the serial number that where taken from a Lotus 49 decal sheet. Except for that and a couple of brake lines for the wheels it' s build OOB, painted in MR Paints RLM colors and flat clear weathering was done using Ultimate dark dirt and W&N oils.

Beautiful build. I really need to do some work with oils for blending etc. I love nothing more than a tidy, crisp build and you've done that plus some tasty detail work.

Bravo!
