JohnB Posted November 23 Share Posted November 23 When I decided to start this build I wasn't sure I had all the needed pieces. I'm pleased I was able to complete it although I had to scratch a right LG/wing knuckle cover. I think it turned out well considering what I had to work with. No after market except for the PE gun sight on the cowling so I guess it's a OOB build. LOL Painted with Xtracolor and Floquil. Decals are from the kit. I hope y'all like it! 🙂 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire Posted November 23 Share Posted November 23 I like it a lot John, an impressive feat of modelling even if it was out of the box rather than a spare parts challenge. Cheers Dennis 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pleased that you like how it turned out. That IP is a decal from the kit. I was a little surprised it came out as well as it did. 🙂 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
