Fit of the parts is perfect, yet there are some moulding imperfections - lower part of the fin needed to be reconstructed.

Undersides of the wing needed some putty.

Fit of the windscreen and canopy is perfect.

Producing masks for the intricate painting. I simply enlarged the painting scheme to fit the dimensions of the wing. Side views, however, are not in scale, so the mask for the fin and rudder needed to be trimmed substantially. For the main "cream" colour I have chosen MRP Radome Tan.

I managed to loose the lettering for the other side of the fin - it folded on itself...

Almost finished... waiting only for lettering on the other side of the fin.

I did not use Tamiya paints with this build, but their jars are perhaps best known 😉

Welcome, Pierre! I am approaching the finish line, in fact, with this build 😉

Cool ! May be a vignette to put it in context for the final expo ? I have difficulty to figure out the size

I will think about it, Pierre, thank you for your suggestion 🙂 (it is pretty small indeed...)

Interesting machine. If it didn't have a chassis, I'd guess it was more of a boat. 🙂
Robert, as always, interesting choice of model and well done.👍

the matchbox gives an idea of the size of the model 👀
a new device for a james bond movie? 😉
Well done!

What a wonderful little project 👍 You really specialised in these little beauties!
The kit was marked with "Future" but it seems to be released, so I changed that.

Beautiful little gem 👍
You seem to be getting rid of all the small kits from your stash lately 😉

That kit is so new, that had no chance to live a while in a comfortable stash 😉
I like this little gem too 👍

I am glad you like it, Mates 🙂
I choose the ones with a low number of parts, frankly speaking, Łukasz 😉 (since I have not much spare time lately)

Very good work with a miniature model, a sign of professionalism. I like it!

@Djordje - fit is very good, almost perfect. Some putty was needed only on the bottom ends of the wing(?) to make it flat. Still, in my copy there were some moulding imperfections: I had to reconstruct the lower end part of the fin and one of the "hinges" was missing to. And in the hindsight: I should have blanked off the cooling holes in the engine compartment or make some "engine" here to avoid the see-through effect here...

Wow Robert, what an original tiny beautiful build this is.
Next to the big kits I'm also into collecting very little detailed 1:72 planes, and this is truly a nice 'wannahave'😬!
