The bare aluminum finish is perfect. I see what you mean about the rivets

Album info

I used some spare AM decals for this and a propeller from A Tamiya kit to do this version. This kit was disappointing for me, the horizontal stabilisers are to thin for the fuselage root, so I had to sand down the roots to make them flush. The 4 piece engine cowl was a nightmare getting it all to fit on around the engine. Small parts break easy, and there are heaps of small parts. Positively though, it has heaps of rivet details. The Tamiya and Hasegawa will still be the ones to go to if you want easy builds.
