Well ! this is the kit I build in my first GB with the same subject. Let's say I didn't have much experience yet. And it came out bad when I look at it on my shelf ! Will follow for sure as will do a better job on it. But I will do another one for sure as I love this plane.

Marvellous painting skills.
How well did the canopy fit. I'm a little bit obsessed about that area lately.
