nice iittle bird - this type is completely new to me.
The canopy is unfortunately not very transparant.

Hi Thomas! Thanks for watchng! Yes, you are right, I thought that it was better... I did some interesting scratch in the inside, but it is barely noticed. There are other small scratch built pieces, like the pitot tube, the aerial, the stirrup, and those structures that such kind of aerobatic aircraft uses in the wings... I really don't know their name and functionality! : $. I can rescue that Condor decals are really good.

well done to add these tiny details! They contribute a lot to the final appearance!
Did you try to dip the canopy into Future (or something similar)? This is (not always) magic!

Yep... please take a look at picture #10. It's shinning! The problem is the opacity of the canopy. Nothing to do but to look for a replacement. I got this tiny kit offshore, it is not available here in Argentina. Perhaps I will end making a vacuoform copy, but first I have to build my vacuo machine! 🙂
