I was asked to build this and approached it with some trepidation. I haven't done a vac form kit before, but I have done a multi media kit. The kit is nicely moulded in white plastic about 1mm thick. I followed instructions and found the kit went together well although quite a bit of filler was required around the wing joints to fuselage and engines. These photos are four nights work - about 10-12 hours and is primed and ready for masking and spraying white. This won't be a build log but if anybody is interested I will probably have a Vickers Varsity to do after this one, which I can photo from the start
