Because I don't want to rush my current build,I thought I would make a start on this in between spraying different colours on the Maryland.This is a new kit from Trumpeter.The only other injected plastic kit in this scale I'm aware of was produced by Classic Airframes many years ago.I haven't been able to get hold of one of those for a reasonable price.So I was quite excited when I heard Trumpeter were going to do one.Ive read a few negative comments about this kits accuracy.But it looks good to me.Trumpeter kits seam to fall into two categories to me.There are the super detailed/hundreds of parts kits (1/48 Wellington).And ones like this with a low parts count.I will be using an Eduard seat belt set .Other than that it will be an out of box build.Unless 'Master ' release a set of brass gun barrels before I finish it that is.The canopy is thoughtfully packed in a separate bag and wrapped in foam for protection.Im going to leave it like that until I nead it.
