Hi guys,

Finished this one up tonight. As always I'm not completely happy, particularly with the tint on the canopy that didn't dry fully clear.

Still, a really nice kit, usual Meng quality and probably the best decals I've ever used.

I will probably add some more pics later as the lighting of the Lightning ( :smiling3: ) wasn't great.

I might shorten the pole a little as it's a bit close to the shelf above.

Hi Bob
That is a really great result. The paint job, masking, is truly eyecatching.
