Looking good, how are you finding the zvezda kit? my migs fit is fantastic. detail is brilliant. Just wondering if all their work is similar. Cant wait to see more.

Hey sorry for the delay in updates, Have not been able to get much modelling in, here is a quick update, managed to shoot some paint.

 

@Scorpiomikey: The kit is beautiful, fit is great. She has been an absolute pleasure to build. Definatly want to get hold of the Zvesda BF-109 1:48.

 

 

Oh and I got some work on the tail rotor done.


 

thanks for looking...
