This is a 1970s tooling which was likely very well regarded when it was originally issued. It does have its limitations, but I made no attempt to modernise it apart from giving it some nice new decals and replacement gun barrels and pitot from aluminium tube and wire which are a little overscale. Paints used were a mix of AK Real Colour, MRP and SMS depending on what was to hand or easily available. This and my Frog offering were really enjoyable builds and I hope Alan would have appreciated my efforts had he still been with us.

Here are the pics. Thanks to all who followed and commented along the way.

That's a nice result, even more so considering it's a very old kit. Alan would have loved it.
