It may not have been the best of kits and it may have been a long build but WOW! That is an amazing result Chris. You should be very proud of that.

You did a great job on this kit Chris, love the extra lighting, well done 😎 cheers

HI Steven thanks yes i had fun building this some of the time an near wreckin it in the other half lol as i could not dry fit part as this fusealage came in 6 parts so had to glue some parts with a fingers crossed job an when it dint fit was a struggle to get the parts apart an glue all over my fingers an then tryin again with clamps that wont hold on the rouned fusalarge well i wasnt a happy bunny but stuck at it but i wont build another of these as perhaps ive just been unlucky gettin two bad fittin kits but i dont know
