Just called this done. I have fought it since November. It's the Academy Tom that I picked up a decade ago for $4 (Yes, Virginia, they do sometimes get built). Biggest fit issues are the front fuselage seams and intake pieces. Took some putty throwin' to get it good. The pit is very nice when complete. Used Humbrol enamel cuz the lhs decided to be out of stock on my top two choices. Even then, it was the last tin. BTW, don't rehab dried out Metalizer, it will wipe off instead of buff out. The CAM decals fought me also because it's fitted for Hasegawa; the ventral strake stripes and tail markings didn't quite fit, and the mouth ended up with wrinkles from the curvature of the nose. I'd put weapons on it, but with the trouble I had, it would probably use them against me 
. Anyway, I'm happy to have it, on to the pics :
