For a starfix kit you've done a great job

Is it just me or are the landing gear just a bit too big ? It looks almost horizontal lol

 

[Guest]

what was the kit like to put together? how did the paint take to the plastic?

Only ask as i have just done a A4 skyhawk from starfix and it was a pig to put together and the paint didn't take to the plastic very well?

Cheers Paul

Went together pretty well. I washed the parts before painting, and had no issues.

Quite pleased with how it came out.

I think it looks really good wish my starfix had come out like that.

Cheers Paul

Did you attempt to use the funny decals that come with it or skip them?

cheers Paul

One tip for the Starfix models is to wash and then give a coat of primer, the paint works better. Looks good there, think you have done a good job, I like it.

No didn't bother. There wasn't many and I felt the lack of lots of panels needed more decals.
