Not in my wheelhouse but I really like the shape and your build. Reminds me of an Italian supermarket a massive engine and the rest comes for free.

Wonderful result Tony. Very nicely painted and finished. That tail wheel tyre is much larger than other fighters of the period.

Very nicely done. Of all the photos of -202s I've got, they never seem to get very dirty or stained, so subtle weathering is the bidness here. Which is nice

Cheers joe , actually confession time - the tail wheel is out of the spares box , the kit one pinged out of the tweezers while i was trying to paint it and disappeared into another dimension . This spare one was the nearest I could find although as you noticed slightly bigger than the original .
“ and I’d have gotten away with it too if it wasnt for those meddling kids !”
