Another little Tamiya bird. I had some major decal issues again with this one, must get on top of that, but otherwise it was a fun, quick build.

Thanks all.

Yes, very pleased for such a small one. I can't count the number of times I broke the guns and other tubes off

Very nice indeed Andy. Tamiya decals are renowned for being rubbish so don't worry.

Andy, I think I saw your build in the construction section, the bands wrinkled up and tore? Nice recovery, painted I am guessing? Quite often I think painted bands look better in the end, so maybe it was, in a weird way, for the best?

Thanks Joe. Yes, I painted them in the end. I went with decals first as I need the practice, but since that went badly wrong I resorted to spraying them. Not quite perfect but close enough

That really is looking rather nice. You should be very proud of yet another great model!!

Very well done.

Cheers Andrew.

It could have been better as I lost interest after the decal incident so didn't bother cleaning up the pitot tubes and other bits that went on last, I just slapped them on straight from the sprue, but the blurry pictures help to hide all that

Another tiny Tamiya - nice finish. It really doesn't look as small as 1:72.

Thanks Colin.

Our TV cabinet is starting to get overrun with models so the small size helps!
