      That is the one I did Kresten, better kit than you may think. Goes together not too bad and finishes well. Just be careful about seam sanding. Because it is raised panel lines and a textured fabric over stringer type surface on the rear fuselage, try to get as best a fit you can at the top (lost detail is easier to hide underneath) and then use a knife to shave and scrape rather than hit it with a sanding stick. It will help to keep as much surface detail as possible. I want another just to do it in the Irish markings.

      Nothing easier than a 1/72nd kit to put a quick smile on your face. Looking forward to seeing how it turns out.

      Hi guys.
      cheers. Really is a good little kit and a bit of fun. Those irish marking do look interesting graham. But better stick to the BoB. Here she is primed and ready for paint.

      Cheers
      Kresten
