One of Special Hobby's first kits. Your model looks far better than a first shot. Very clean work!

Thank you! The biggest problem I had was with the aluminum paint; I should have clear-coated it right after I painted it, because it easily transferred to my fingers while I was finishing details. As a result, there are some bare patches. It did add a bit of a natural distressed look, and the color of the plastic is close enough that it's not too obvious.
Well, that and the ballast for the nose. I underestimated, and it's a tail-dragger (propped up at the tail plane in these pictures).
