I purchased this kit & a LS 1:144 P-3F Orion from a hobby shop while on a business trip. I built this kit in my hotel room using such simple tools as my Swiss Army knife, fingernail clippers & tweezers from a cheap personal grooming kit, ear swabs & toothpicks for painting, scotch tape for masking, etc... The photo is of the finished product on my hotel dresser. Total time was in the neighborhood of 8-10 hours over a couple of nights. I built the P-3F when I returned home so I could airbrush the IIAF camo pattern.
