This is a old kit from 1979 and very easy to build and brought back some good memories not only of building this kit as a kid but of the show itself
I wanted to paint it like it was in the show as the paint instructions were different and seeing as the kits was not as detailed as the one in the show I added a few bits from left over kits that resembled the parts plus a little bit of imagination
Here's some pics of bits I added

These engine shots were just holes so I found some bits that ensemble thrusters View attachment 79244

I wasn't happy with the rocket pods on the kit so replaced them with a Marta rocket pod on the port wing and a censor pod on the starboard side
Now for the finish pics , this will be in a dio so will have some scorch marks on the nose and engines to show it entered an atmosphere at some point
I also added some left over decals from other aircraft I had built to give it a bit of reality and added detail View attachment 79246
