Interesting. A Spanish Bug.

Nice. I built one of these earlier this year, very curious on how this will turn out. I'll take a seat. 🙂

Ooh, count me in! Fantastic work so far, especially that cockpit.

What are your thoughts on this kit so far? I am curious as to how the Kinetic Hornet builds up, as I have a couple in my stash and have not built one yet. I have built the Hasegawa version, so I will be interested to see how they compare.

Thank you for your comments! 🙂
@Michael Philips This kit is the worst. Bad (to say something) union of the nose and the air intakes pieces. Lazy instructions, a lot of pieces you don't know how to locate if you don't have photographs of the real aircraft. Pieces that if you glue them when the instructions said do it, in the next step you will have a bad union with another piece. And I don't like the decals, more than 5 minutes inside the water to get the decal out from the decalsheet.
My recommendation is if you have the kit and didn't start it, sell it!
I will continue fighting with the worst Hornet kit I have never seen.

Roge, my opinion exactly. You can see my build and see that I suffered a lot. :-\ But, if you bought it, go forward! In the end, it's an F/A-18! 🙂
