The canopy is very crude and needs some work to fit. Even now, after some work it looks not good.

These landing gear panels, that come with kit are point blank awful. Had to use panels from my parts box.

It maybe isn't 100% accurate, but looks better than original.

Applying of the decal was just pain. It broke in 3 pieces, but somehow I managed to scrape it back together. All decals are very bad quality, because they tend to brake very easily. And YES, the canopy is awful.

The decals are crap. Had problems with everyone of them. They are super easy to break. If you use decalfilm etc. stuff then maybe they should not break.

Maybe in future I will try to fix the canopy, or maybe not 😄

This kit was just a big nightmare. I Built it straight out of box, with some minor improvements. Had bunch of problems and made some mistakes. Not bad experience tho and for a first fighter jet it is not bad result. Now the paint has to dry and then I will do rest of the paint job and of course the decals are yet to be applied.

I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS AS A FIRST OR EVEN SECOND KIT! You need a lot of work and modelling experience to make this plane perfect. Decals are good tho, atleast mine are 😄

You're a daredevil!!! I'm working on the same kit too... it's enough to make you cry, just like all the others from the same manufacturer... I feel you.

Today I managed to complete the build. It isn't perfect, but good enough for me. I will upload some better pictures soon. This was a challenging one. So the next build will be something easier.
