It looks more than adequate as your first plane in 15 years :). That's a pretty good build on its own.

Thanks to all ! It s been really fun, returning to the hobby...lot more information and materials to work with.

With the age, comes patience to do the things that take more time but better results. Now its pratice more tecniques and enjoy !!

I m going to start another airfix new mold (great little kits) the Messerschmitt bf 109-e4, have to experiment with the masks to paint camo.

Thanks again!
