August 1, 2024Overall, I enjoyed the new techniques with painting with SMS paints and AK Xtreme metals along with altering the rudder and flaps of a model. I was not aiming for a competition level finish but rather a lessons learn't with new techniques gathered from podcasts and Youtube.
This Italeri kit fall short with the undercarriage as it was difficult to line up where the hinges should have been which ruined the overall finish (pics to come). Thank you for viewing my build and I will definitely build another Flanker model but from another top quality kit.47
