The decals are printed very we. I won't be using the instrument panel decals. I prefer drybrushing.

The panellines are nice.

Like most builds, this one also starts with the cockpit assembly. I painted it with Tamiya Yellow-green. The instrument panel is black. I did not use the decal, instead I drybrushed the instrumentpanel, it looks nicer i think

I bougth this kit last sunday at the Modelforce exhibition organised by Moveleo, a modellers club in my neighbourhood. I also bought the Mig 29 (eduard) and a Spitfire in Soviet service (ICM). Started yesterday with this little project. although it is called a 'weekend-edition', i won't be able to finish it in 2 days. After painting and assembling the office, i will wheater it with promodellers wash.
