Looking good Steffen, the etched walk way looks a little thick, would this not be better as a decal! i must open the bag and check these parts out,
I also picked up an Italeri Tankwagon on Thursday looks good also, and i couldn't help myself but got the new Revell FW200 Condor C-4. it can go next to the first one in my stash!

Hi Keith

i do not think this is much overdone and you can also choose not to install these and only use the decals (also stated in the instructions!)

I just wanted to mask the canopies, when I noticed the sliding hood of the pilot is a short shot. Dang it is even visible on my First Look photos, but I did not notice it until now when I scratched my head why the darn thing refuses to fit .... doh



all the best

Steffen
P.S. the Puma is on the hunt

Hi Steffen

What a pain! But, fear not, you're not the first person to have missed something like that, and I doubt that you'll be the last! I once got caught by a missing part on a kit I'd reviewed. When I started to build it, there was a no sign of the thingamajig. I searched everywhere and finally, sure enough, when I went back and checked the sprue-shots in the review... there was the gap on the sprue as clear as daylight!

All the best

Rowan

P.S. - Nice Puma!

Hi all

back on this project ... why, because I will paint the underside of my MiG-21MF in "RLM 65" ....

but first I need to do a few preparation steps to get to the point when I can use some paint. First thing: Masks



Did I ever mention that there are times when I am really happy that I have a shelf of halfbuilt models

cheers

Steffen
