Hi all
Finished
Really enjoyed it. An excellent little kit. I must confess that I cheated twice!!
The front wheel would not hold with the added weight in the nose and so I used CA. I also used CA to fix the canopy in the open position - the kit glue was slow drying and the canopy kept slowly closing.
The
decals were very nice. Actually made by Cartograf. Without MicroSol they didn't settle into the panel lines.
Although the fit of parts was superb join lines were still showing. The two fuselage halves really needed a wipe over with Mr Surfacer 500.

I am going to build this kit again, with no restrictions, as the second part of this GB and when I start I'll add to this thread.
Thanks to all of you who have supported this fun build.
Jim
