This model was built
straight out of the box with no after-market products used. It's an inexpensive
kit by Revell with fairly good parts detail. Instead of using traditional Tamiya
putty, I experimented with a dry wall filling compound (called DryDex in Canada)
and was happy with the results. The compound which is originally pink in color
changes to white when completely dry and is a lot easier to sand it off as well.
The kit came with markings for East Germany (1985) and Poland, and I preferred
the former.

The kit is
hanging beautifully in my room now and my wife is happy to get the guest
room back.
Enjoy!
