Nice little build there. I also built one of these a while back, but I can't recall the kit maker. Simple little kit that went together quick. I'll add a pic of mine a bit later, as my camera....err, I mean phone is charging right now.

I also built Trumpeters F-22 Raptor and it was anything but simple. Here is the post when I finished it:

1/144 scale kits can be a challenge!

On my workbench now:

It's all about classic cars now!

Why can't I find the "Any" key on my keyboard?

Need little kit with only a few parts.  I decided to make mine operational and used some markings from the Trumpeter 1/144 F-22 kit since it had several to use.  Only issue I have is I need to get a good light box for the picture sessions.  As for the kit, the canopy was the only part I didn't like, the line use for the paint like left only a tiny bit of canopy clear so I smoothed it all out and painted the framing where it looked a little better.  Here's the pics.
