Robert, once again an excellent selection of an attractive and little seen machine. 👍
But do I see it right? Is it really 1:32? That's a really big jump from 1:144 to 1:32!
I wish you a successful and relaxing build with no nasty surprises. I'm really looking forward to this build 👀

Thanks for your interest and encouraging words, Ludviku! 🙂 Actually, it is of a size of many of 1:72 scale models. (The first hurdle is to fill all the air bubble pockets in the bottom of the fuselage...)

Tiny holes with air bubbles are a common problem with resin parts. Removing them is sometimes an "endless" process. After filling them with putty and then sanding them down, more holes appear in other places. They then have to be reapplied with putty and sanded again. And when sanding, more holes appear... 🙁

It should also be said that this is not the case with all resin parts. Some manufacturers are able to remove air bubbles from the resin during curing with a vacuum pump. Such parts have a nice smooth surface from the factory, free of blemishes and air bubbles.

Unfortunately, there is quite a lot tiny holes - I filled them with thick CA glue, and I am waiting for it to cure thoroughly... (still, two-part automotive putty is another option at hand...)
