I eventually used a mixture of superglue and talcum powder to fill in the gaps and rescribed the panel lines with the help of some Tamiya flexible masking tape. As for the lost raised rivets I cut small disks of plastic rod of matching diameter and sanded them down after gluing them in place.

Might be my next build. yours is looking really sharp Oliver Many thanks Oliver! Despite KH's reputation for clumsiness (to put it mildly) I've really enjoyed the kit so far. The few issues the model has are well documented and are easy to fix (apart from the engine covers which were a real PITA...). I think you'd like it, too, and can end up with an usual but attractive plane. 1 hour ago, ericg said: Well done. Looks really nice. Thank you Eric!

spyrosjzmichos Posted November 4, 2019 Author Share Posted November 4, 2019 Finally! Construction is done! Cleaned up all the seams, rescribed all the lost panel lines and rivets and polished the surface as much as possible! Time to mask the clear parts and proceed to painting!
