Not many of the struggles are visible Gus, your bird looks business with the weathering and pronouncing panel liner. Wasn't the foggy residue some ice, because of condensation ;)?

Okay, calling this one done and it's in the cabinet.

Decent kit and the fit was generally good other than the nose assembly which was a 'mare if you want to close it up. Milliput and lots of sanding to the rescue.

Overall, I'm pretty happy with the outcome. 

Next up with some trepidation is the Viggen....

Brilliant build and so glad you kept going and didn't let the nose get the better of the build. Fit and finish is superb - so very well done. Any thoughts on your next build?  🏆

Thanks fellas.

Peter, the next build is planned to be the JetMads Viggen I won in the raffle last year, kindly donated by Ernie. I probably won't start it until after Christmas though as life looks pretty busy over the next few weeks with regulatory inspections at work, etc and I want to read and watch as many build reviews as I can just to get my head around the best sequence for doing things before I blunder into it. I've never built a (predominantly) resin kit before so I want to try and minimise the risk of 'operator error' before I start. 😉
