@Mr D,Hi, I like this build of this kit. The casting is thin and neat, although there are some minor flaws. The connection between the parts is good and the edges of the wings are sharp and thin. The decal has a thick layer of varnish. The plastic is typical of this company's kits (I have looked at other Hasegawa kits in my stash) some details is translucent in places, but durable.

@Guy, Thanks, I'll try hard 🙂

I applied this primer three times and washed it off three times. "Orange peel" every time. And I diluted it and tried undiluted, degreased the model with alcohol - the result is the same. That's enough trying for today.

After my experience with my MiG-15, I'm done with Vallejo primer.

@Ben M, yes, I remember your MiG-15. I have never had problems with Vallejo primers before. They suddenly started back on my Super Etendard, but I thought it was an isolated incident. I have already sinned against isopropyl alcohol and the composition of water, I do not understand why these problems began.

I still didn't calm down. 🙂 Through experiments, it was possible to achieve a more or less normal application of the primer. The best results are achieved on a fat-free surface, without dilution, and at a minimum pressure of 0.8-1 bar.
