Thanks for your kind words mates 🙏 Happy myself to see this long time shelf queen finished before the plastic got too brittle 😉

Thanks David! Back from the days when lightnings where the big trend in fighter decorations 🙂

I just noticed it's the Hasegawa kit beaten into submission. 🤣 is there a wip ??

Thank you very much Rui and Tommy!
@David: Yeah, and I really have to say this is not a bad kit considering its from 1988.
I wasnt in the mood for a WIP but theres a lot of modelers who conquered it before me and documented it.
The main trick is to deviate from the manual and glue the nose to the top half and the inlets and ducts first to the belly half before joining the whole donut, this is the main problem zone.
Ah and the beaver tail: also lower part to the lower half and the upper part to the upper half before joining

Good tips I'll be following those as I have 2 of these in the stash (after the italeri and academy practice kits 😬)

That's indeed some good advice to mitigate that risk of a step at the spine and having no access to the intakes after cementing them to the lower fuselage. Thanks Daniel! 👍

David, I haven't built the italeri - but after you conquer the academy kit, this one (and many others) will feel like new tooled tamiya😅
