In general it was a straight forward build. The paint instructions in my kit specially for the interior were poor. I used the Eduard 1/48 as a guide. The decals are very thick and softener didn't work well on them. If you plan every step and you do enough try fitting you should do ok.

Nice work Robert! I get your point concerning the decals: the weight table seems to suffer from quite some silvering as a result.
I especially like the realistic turnbuckles you used for the rigging! They look perfect!
And by the way, what are those two white painted surfaces on the leading edge of the upper wing?

The decals were the general issue with this build. If I knew the trouble ahead of me, I would have airbrushed all crosses. The white of the decals is much brighter and I was not able to blend them in. As a result you see them on the leading edges 🙁
