Hi, this time I want to show you a special kit. A kit of resin. This model is discontinued today, made in
Chekia (Czech Republic). Is not a cheap kit. Sorrowfully it does not good quality. It has some mistakes.
The decals are wonderful, good stencils, and good quality. The vacuform canopy is not very clear.
It's landing gear on white metal is terrible. I chose to rebuild it, from
scratch, the rear wheels the same thing. It's photoetch is very nice. Well, I did some
detailing: I got better the board, I put the landing and navigation lights. The static discharge are steel wire, the same the symmetrical rear antennas. The ventral antennas, exhausts and knobs were made
from scratch. The model was painted using: X-4,X-2,X-7,X-19 and (X-5,X-28) on mix of Tamiya. I painted
the landing gear and anti glare panel with Testors acrylics and enamels. The serial numbers and insignia courtesy from Aztec. The final cote is Semi-Gloss(Mr. Color). Really I am not sure about the real scale. It seem
me some ambiguous.
