Maciej BellosGood work! How was the fit of the kit? Those Mastercraft kits are a bit difficult to build and require a lot of putty and sanding due to poor fit.

Nikolas HorianopoulosI purchased this jet spending the tremendous amount of 7 EUR (lol). I wasn't expecting a high quality detailed plane at this price.
The panel lines are engraved and offered me plenty space for oil wash. The cockpit is bare, the ejection seat is hilarious, the canopy remained sealed, the armaments are ok with surprisingly great detail, wheel wells are flat and bare. The fit was awful, connectors' pins are completely absent, the fuselage required plenty of dry fit trial and errors in order to achieve the best possible fit, most of the times I had to guess the exact connection marks in various parts, the manual had missing reference in correspondence with the sprues. All in all this is a bad kit and it requires exceptional modelling skills to turn this kit in an exceptional build. Needless to say this was an OOB build, no way to invest money on this. I wouldn't recommend it for novice modelers (like myself). I love Fitters and I don't regret the purchase nor the bulit. I hope you like the result.

Łukasz GlińskiGreat job, lot of patience must have been required, pity that they packed the decals which are bit off register...
