They are great kits, maybe a little to over detailed (causing a few minor fit issues) if you're not 'opening' her up to see the extra detailing. But, a kit I'd certainly recommend.

I like opening them up. What I dont like are those stupid clear engine cowlings, like in the Trumpeter 1/24 P 51. BiggTim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do agree wholeheartedly about the cowlings, the ones I had in my two kits, the detail wasn't as good as the aircraft plastic. The issue really comes when you need to panel wash the cowlings as the detail wasn't deep enough to accept a wash, so some of these panels needed a light re-scribe to open them up. None the less though, a good kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerhard Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Will grab one if I see bargain, for now, the Trump P 51 needs to be finished (98%) and I need to start the 1/24 Mozzie for the GB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dennismcc Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 They look great, especially lined up together, maybe I should get one to put alongside my ancient Revell kit in the display cabinet. Cheers Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
