Hello. I managed to finish this kit in a matter of
weeks. It is a nice little kit with several issues. First of all I would like to point out that the panel lines are too deep and I did my best to change the depth of the panel lines and still they are way too
deep.

I would like to point out that the vacformed canopy was too thin and I had to make another one thanks to the master
supplied in the
kit, a great plus for this manufacturer. I managed to scratchbuild most of the cockpit including the cockpit floor and rear
bulkhead. The instrument panels were scratchbuilt too as are the throttle
handles. I also scratchbuilt a new light in the nose from some leftover
sprue (the kit lacks the nose light). The painting was done with Revell and
Humbrol
enamels. The kit decals are a little bad so I used only the 5 stencils given and the serial
numbers. The roundels and flags are Balkan models roundels and flags which performed
great.
In the end this is a nice little kit and I must recommend it to anyone that
wants a soko NJ-21 jastreb in their collection.
