Very nice job! How are the Wingsy kits?

Jorge Medina
Thanks John! In my opinion is a good kit except for the lack of detail in the control surfaces that is easily fixed with Quinta studio 3d decals or with some masks and paint to create the details. All the rest is really good. Nice rivetting and panel lines and also very good fit.
