No i stało sie kolejny modelik z serii kolorowych albo karnawałowych :)
Trumpeter model with a resin cockpit from Aires. Interference with the model on my part was the addition of installing smoke (pictured is one przewodzik in the engine)

Ryszard,
Oh My!! What a truly fantastic build. Your NMF, especially the engine/exhaust area is superb, as it looks exactly like the photos.
Try as I might, I can't tell if you painted or decaled that complex scheme. The nose area would be by far the hardest to get decals to lay down perfectly, yet I can't see one single wrinkle or error. I'm assuming that you masked and painted it.
Same for the rest of the aircraft, especially the bottom with the big blue bird with white borders. Can't see a single error or miscue.
Would you be so kind to share with us the details.

I will try to explain to it,
Decals are of good quality. When laying the preparations I used Micro Sol and Micro Set

Hard to believe you were able to get those decals to conform to those compound curves so well. I'm really impressed.

Wow!!!
I've always wanted the Trumpeter kit. Then I heard the old Monogram was more accurate, and I have 2 of those.
Now, after seeing this beauty, I'm not convinced the Trumpeter is bad enough to shy away from. Your build looks very nice.
