YAY, the resin nose FINALY arrived today, its way better than the default nose on the kit, i'll start building it soon but first i have to finnish off revell's "NH90 NFH" kit (i will post pics when done). I was actually starting to try and shape the nose by sanding the sides down alot because i was starting to think that part was never going to show up, but now looking at the resin nose i can see that it would have taken a hell of a lot sanding and puttying to get it looking good.  

 REALLY looking foward to building it. Sorry for massive delay.

the plane just arrived this morning, its a big kit, i havent really done anything exept sand the sides of the nose of the right fusalage peice down a little as they are to round on this kit. I will probably post some progress pics here and there but this will probably be a slowish build.

And yes after a quick google i comfirmed the kit comes with SAS decals (which i will probably use).

And yes i know this thread is boring at the momment but it should get interesting sooner or later once i get into the kit and begin posting pics.   

has anyone here doen this kit?
