This kit has really nce detail but some rather odd features. The avionics bay has not front or rear bulckheads to blank off the gaping holes eithe end of the bay floor. It also has a nice metal intake cone, fully detailed engine but no intake trunking....

I saw anlther build of this kit and the guy had a resin after market insert for the vertical stab that features nice hydrolic and electrical points.
Not having ANY budget for Am bling I had to make my own, not as cool as resin but I do what I can with what I have ;)

I am installing all the bits in the fuse and even here it is confusing as there is allot of forward/rearward play in the locator seats for the cockpit, avionics bay ect so I need to be slow and methodical in doing this.

A lovely job thus far. Fantastic interior details.
Looks like Trumpeter kits are good. I have their Westland Wyvern waiting in its box.

Ta. I got the black on, also did the rear fuselage with pale burnt metal and burnt iron to look like the heat stains in that area.
