Looks great. Which kit is this? It looks challenging.

Thnx! It's from Kinetic and yes it is a bit of a challenge, but still fun to build 🙂

Are you going to build it with wings folded? I Always wondered how much weight you'd need to keep the nose down when the wings are folded.

Wings will be folded..don't know how much weight I have put inside. Will leave the cockpit glass off to adjust if needed. 🙂

Great work! 👍 I'm working on the same thing right now. With unfolded wings I needed 120 gramms of weight in the nose and behind the cockpit. And I agree: A bit of a challenge, but nice kit. 🙂

I like the shading - very subtle. This is looking good.

Thank you for the nice comments! The decals are a challenge, they seem to be out of scale and/or disproportionate… Will try to fix any gaps with airbrush and light weathering. 🙂

Looks very nice! I have one question if you don't mind answering it. I'm very skeptical of this kit because of kinetic not being a high quality brand but how was he fit and over all build quality?

Thank you all 🙏
The Kit is not to bad. Only one big issue, I had to carve away some plastic on the left inner wing to make sure the folded left wing could be in the right position. I also have a lot of extra ballast in the nose. The decals are not very accurate, but scaled a little to small (as far as I can see). Could mostly be fixed with paint/weathering.
If I'd change anything it would be to do all painting AND weathering with wings off (or not make them folded would also suffice 😉 ) and also get some aftermarket decals.
