The base ejection seat was too bland, so I've created belts from aluminum foil and masking tape.

Seat cover was made from putty.

I did make a lot of mistakes with this kit. One of them was painting the dark grey part first.

First finished photo, no weathering yet at this point.

Decals in this kit weren't all that great, I also suck with big decals, so silvering did occur, but overall I'm still happy with the results.

I did some weathering on the bottom....maybe a bit too much.

Some very light weathering on the top, panel liner only.

I haven't heard many good things about this kit, how was it for you in terms of fit and finish

It wasn't bad in terms of fit. For a beginner such as myself it was great, not too difficult and not too much work needed.
