Hello lads,
well, I've gone as far as I can go with this one, I put 40 hrs into it and it ain't no masterpiece-but it was FUN! Which was what this GB was all about.
This is the Airfix 1/72 F-4J that I tried to build as a ten yr old, it never got finished 26 years ago, so it was a relief to get it done this time around. The kit is pretty awful, and the decals are next to useless, however I got out a fine paintbrush and did my best to mask where the decals tore up.
The base is a simple one, given the time-but I kind of like it! This is what I would have wanted in my room all those years ago, my very first kit on display for all to see.
So as my ten year old self would have said:
"Hey! Come and look at this! I made it!"
