Looking good! How do you like the kit?

Fit is pretty bad in spots, especially under the nose near the gun and landing gear. It's unnecessarily complicated and fits poorly. It's not really detailed enough to warrant exposed bits like a detached gun bay. Likewise the fuselage is in quarters because it has a full engine but no wheeled caddy to hold the back end so if you plan on full body like I did you still have to put the engine in to get the tailpipe and get it properly balanced with bad seams where the front and back half meet. BUT anyhow I do like the results, I wanted to spend most of my effort on the paint and wasn't expecting so much work😢

Tamiya has a 1:48 I might try one day, I just couldn't order it as quickly as I could get the Trumpeter.
