That's quite nice
Is it the 1/72 kit?

Very nice. I like the streaked green on the forward fuselage and wings.
I take it its the newer tooling?

Thanks!

Yes it is. A friend of mine who built both (Eduard & Revell) said the are very similar.

Given that Revell has reboxed Eduard kits in the past it very well may be the Eduard tooling. That's a bonus because it gives the kit more exposure.

By the way, thank you for not doing the all-red version which gets done so often. It's refreshing to see it in green

Thanks you all for your comments!

Re: the red... I agree!

Now I can't wait to start his brothers version (Lothar Richthofen)
