I'm calling this done apart from the wheels. I was cutting a slot in 1 of the wheels and the bloody thing exploded. So I now have to buy some resin ones GRRRRRRRR It went together really well but the Hasegawa decals were shit. They either wouldn't come off the paper or when they did they shattered. Bought some Kora decals at great expense and they silvered like hell. They were very fragile and I won't be buying them again. I actually bought this for the colour scheme. It'll look ok in the cabinet but won't ever be attending expo. On to the pics :)

Lovely clean build there Paul. Quite a nice looking aeroplane. What are those markings - Nepalese?

Cheers

Adam

That's a really clean nice well made Nate Paul, certainly different to mine.
I had no problems with my kit decals but what is the tail insignia as mine didn't come with that.

Cheers

Wayne.

PS Adam, the markings are Mongolian, or Manchurian as oz rb fan mentioned.

Ta boys. The markings are Manchurian. The tail insignia was part of the Kora decal sheet. I tried a lot of the Hasegawa decals and they were all buggered :(

Another superb model there Paul. It's good to see something a little different in the markings line. Well done mate.

Regards,
RHB.

Nice job on that radio antennae rigging - what did you use for the isolators - a bit of glue?
