I don't like 1/72. The detail is terrible.

Not too bad for hand painting.

The decal sol and set were confusing me, which goes first?

What happens when you paint a dark color in the dark. I just wanted to finish and go to sleep.

Photography skills are improving. Was tricky to get lighting under wing near fuselage. Was the only place with detail on this kit.

Used at least three paint manufacturer's: tamiya,vallejo, AK and model master are what I remember. Ordered anthracite but still hasn't come.

Album info

First attempt at an aircraft. Definitely don't like the 1/72 scale. Its a quick build and I see detail accessories but feel it would be like putting makeup on a pig. Maybe I'm just old and blind but don't think the details would be visible at that scal. Perhaps doing a large diorama would call for less quality and more quantity.
