Initial test fitting started. Will require more sanding and putty that expected for such a new kit.

Cool subject and nice start 👍 Test fitting is half the "fun" on these limited run kits.

Thanks John, test fitting can be quite rewarding for the rest of the build if you take your time and have some patience.

Is it similar to a commemorative edition or just meant to replicate natural metal finish?

It's aluminum plated to represent the actual nmf finish. I built a t-33 where I had some issues that I hope to improve upon.

Did a lot of sanding areas that will be glued, masking, fitting parts to each other, and basic assembly while I'm on vacation. I got new decals from Siam decals as the originals are from 1968 and not in good shape. I'm not sure how old the Siam decals are but they are newer than '68. One thing that is apparent is the stripey tail decal doesn't fit at all. This is going to be a good challenge to resolve.

Decided to try to apply the 1960s decal for the cockpit, as I don't have an alternative. Had to soak it for about a minute in hot water to get it to release. As is typical for hawk kits the decal isn't the right size but you go to war with the decals you have. I got it to apply without shattering. Unsure if it will stick, very old decals like this often have to be glued in place.

Made a start on this kit with the cockpit which is quite basic to say the least, part of the reason I put the pilot and navigator in. 🙂

Added cockpit to the upper fuselage. Lower parts of the tail added to the lower fuselage. Wings and folding mechanism added to lower fuselage. Weight added to the lower part of the nose. I wasn't certain how much to add as there is no indication in the instructions. 🙂

I call this completed. The plane denoted is a Tornado from 111 (F) Sqn, RAF Leuchars in 2010.
111 (Fighter) Sqn converted to the Tornado F3 from the Phantom FGR.2 in 1990 at RAF Leuchars in Scotland. Its main role there was as a part of the UK's Quick Reaction Alert to identify and if necessary, destroy hostile aircraft entering UK air space. The Sqn also carried out air operations over Bosnia in 1994/95 and took an active part on Operation Telic commanded by Wing Commander Rob Birch in 2003. 111 Sqn was the last RAF Sqn to operate the Tornado F3 and was disbanded in 2011.

Taking good shape now, has it all gone together ok so far..?? Tamiya are usually good?
I've only do one armour model....the Airfix Sherman 1/72 ....was a gift.
Best of luck with next steps 👍👍

Many thanks Mr D for your kind comment. It's fitted together really well as you'd expect. I'm experimenting with this one with a bit of weathering and chipping, hopefully it will turn out ok. 👍

@Rolf Rolf, Thanks for the kind comment. The kit is quite complex with a lot of parts and, as with some of the newer Airfix kits you have to be accurate as the fit is very tight. Other than that, so far, so good! 👍

@Cortex, I built Tiger 1 with heavy hobby, too (and i have panther tracks in the same brand).
It's much better than original tracks, but assembly is a little fragile and tricky.
Don't try to assemble them from the side (the 2 tracks at the same level). I found it's easier to put already assembled tracks on the table, and assemble the new tracks from above.
it's difficult to explain, but there are only 2 ways to assemble tracks : by side, or above 😅
Good idea, i'll also add panther tracks. Currently, i don't have Friul ones yet. And only Tamiya and hobby boss models.

Hey guys, I've been working on this kit lately and found a massive flaw on the tracks!
You can see the issue here, part G1 has one link too much which leads to huge fitting issues when you finally managed to wrap the links around the sprocket and idler wheel.
imghost.net/gmPcY8sCLmavsGc
The only chance to link them is by sagging them more than requested which will give the model an awkward look.
I've tried to assemble them 3 times before I found that issue. Unfortunately I can't find aftermarket replacements in China so I'm thinking of a solution now.
Take care, better buy aftermarket right away if you want to go for this kit!

Yes, the kit tracks don't fit. There's one link too much on the G1 track piece which leads to fitting issues all the way through.

I've not started yet the Ustar KT, and i was wondering if it was necessary to buy friul or trex tracks for this recent model.
I'll save myself a headache, and include missing KT tracks in my next order 😉
