Very sweet there Peter, you surely know about speed builds ( faster than anyone I know
I do like the wearherng tech on this even though it's all black so to speak.
Very well done

Well, it certainly looks worn. Good stuff Peter

Nice one Peter. I like the paint chipping - is it actually chipped off, or painted on? Either way it's come out well.

I first painted on the aluminium color where I wanted it dabbed on some humbrol maskol then the top coat waited for it to dry and rubbed it off

A nice dark sinister night fighter.

Really good!
I have done the same kit. It's a great kit from Tamiya.
I took a bit of a liberty with the paint and did the later dark green/dark sea grey scheme, but the black looks awesome...
