Hey Mike, you have a really nice semi-gloss finish here, very appropriate for the scale (instead of super shiny). Did you rub it out, micro-mesh it, or some other patented trade secret? 🙂

Thanks for your kind comments! @Bill, the white is Tamiya white surface primer, with a few coats of Future airbrushed on top, built up in light misted coats until I'd achieved the semi-gloss I was aiming for.

Mike, Outstanding work! What a beautiful build. I agree with your analysis. Nothing too difficult about an older kit that a little hard work and patience can't fix. Keep 'em coming!

Choppa Nutta
nicely done 🙂
older kits are worth the tackling for sure and as Dutch says a little hard work and patience can overcome many flaws, also it heightens the appreciation of the high quality of modern kits and just how far kit manufacturing has come over the decades 🙂

I think I would be more than "generally happy" if I could produce an old Airfix model to look like that! 10/10🙂
