After reading a few reviews on this little gem, I decided to pick it up and give it a build.
---------
The Kit
The box art is very nice, showing her in an all yellow scheme.
Inside are 5 bags of sprue. The attachment points for most of the parts are very fine and the parts sand easily. So far, the injector pin marks have been very light and in places that don't really matter. The detail is very good. Considering the yellow and yellow/blue color schemes, the choice of white plastic was a good one. Paint coverage shouldn't be a problem.
The kit comes with decals for 2 planes, a US Army and US Navy Stearman. No additional information is given about the markings for the chosen planes. The decals look nice with the exception of the instrument decals. They aren't printed very well and the dials are very hard to see.
The 12-page instructions are easy to follow. They also give a part list that gives the name of each part. This is a very nice touch. The rigging diagrams look easy to follow with both diagrams and pictures of the rigged kit. All in all, a very nice job from Revell.

The Build
First step, the cockpit. It's all ready to be painted, weathered and assembled. (I couldn't imagine doing this in 1:72 scale!). Now I need to search for some cockpit photos.
More to come later.
