One would think that for a snap-tite, non-glue, no painting instructions kit, that it could be done in 15 minutes. Well, you'd be correct. I bought it for 2 pound equivalent, so I guess that's not really an issue. But the plastic had a weird sheen to it, even after it was washed and primed.
I also had to dig out my luftwaffe squadrons book for a paint job, since this "kit" did not have one. I really think it was not intended to be painted. There were only like 8 decals that were appropriate, the rest I had to hand paint. Except for the swastikas which came (like the underwing bombs) from the 144 scale "262". And like a chaude, I did not check my directions before applying them, and they are on tilted at the wrong angle. Whatever.
In any case, here she is, long over due, ready for a roasting...
