The interior of the bird. Quite nice for such an old kit.

I had difficulty in aligning the wings and the tail and built this rig to make sure that everything was properly aligned.

And then the moment was there: adding the decals. This was really not easy. The fit wasn't too good and everything was not really smooth. Lots of sol solved the problem, however.

This was a Marauder my brother built about 50 years ago. Unfortunately it suffered some flak-damage: he placed the kit too close to a light bulb and the heat warped the tail surfaces.

The big hairy bird, almost ready: I discovered I forgot the decals for the props.
