This instructions are all in Japanese, so I had to look up the color call outs.

Even though this had very little parts, it was very difficult to fit together.

I used the AK Extremes stainless steel, and Vallejo jet exhaust. I like the outcome, but did not enjoy the fit. 
 

Album image #5
I think this looks ok for not having much detail.

Well, I know it not true German WW2 colors, but I think its close. I am happy with the results.

No the ski is closed because I crushed it to a million pieces trying to glue the front and back halve together.

First coat of gloss coat. I used Alcalde II aqua gloss. Its my first time using this stuff, and I like how it works. Doesn't smell at all, and went on easy. I need to do a second coat.

I finished the kit with a coat of Alcald II clear flat.
