Those tires should be able to be fixed with an Exacto blade, some super glue and some sanding. It's stupid to put pin marks there and they're a pain to correct but it can be done.

Agreed! I'll sort it - I've encountered issues like this before on all these older kits... As always it'll be about patience mate 👍

Your color touches to the control panel reminds me of early 1960's space fantasy films. I wonder if Captain Kirk could fly a Corsair?

Hi Roland 🙂 Thanks! I don't really know too much about these things: Tooling, plastic colour choice, kit manufacture, etc... But I'd guess it's maybe because my (older version kit) is an Academy/Minicraft and yours is an Academy, so for whatever (cost?) reason that would be a suggestion mate??

Great weathering job! Always hard to get a good weathering look on a dark surface. You nailed it!👍🏻
