Hi guys,

This is the venerable Xtrakit/MPM/Special Hobby Gloster Meteor F.8 which has since been superseded by Airfix offering but I had it in stock and I figured "how bad can it be?".

Back in 2006, 18 year old me had been blown away by Brett Green's build on Hyperscale which convinced me to order the kit straight from Hannants.
Well folks, Mr Green makes it look easy.

As a short run first-timer, I wasn't ready for the amount of sanding, cutting, filling and scratch-building needed to get this kit to look passable.

I don't think it's my best effort but I'm glad it's now across the finish line and I'll gladly avoid short-run kits in the future 🙂

Have a great day and happy modelling!
