(With apologies for the deleted posts - i've had some issues uploading pictures. Hopefully resolved!)
Loved this build - an old kit by Monogram Models which I was initially sceptical about but its probably one of my favourite builds so far.
The fit was mostly perfect - needed clamps a few times, but nothing major.
The kit comes with two versions of the body and engine - the shorttail and longtail (which is the one I went with - how could you not with that dramatic swoop!)
Like many old models, the decals were not in great shape, so I had to improvise a bit on the cody colour, went with chrome, chrome and more chrome (50 shades of chrome?) inspired by my favourite movie: Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow.
Hope you like it - welcome any feedback and thoughts.
... and the beautiful engine
