Post by Pengbuzz »

This is a project I built as a gift for my friend Adam. Progress is as follows-

Cockpit superdetailing and pilot:

On original kit-included stand (which later shattered, requiring a custom built one):

Pilot and cockpit canopy in place:

Initial paintjob (via Spraycan painting derricks):

Thanks Tesral! I like making a stand more than just a way to keep the model up!
