This kit was a present from my wife in 2002 so it is quite special for me. Also this was the first kit I used to practice airbrushing,  cockpit detailing, etched parts (seatbelts), gloss coat for decals, oil wash & Gunze acrylics! Someone could say "..hey man..where are you from...Mars or something???" (Recent  information based on the top secret ARC classified webpages state that Martian modelers do exist & weather their spaceship models using exclusively red chalk pastels...I wonder why....)

Anyway this is a great kit, a real pleasure to build. After a series of accidents & misfortunes due to the new techniques used, the kit was finally finished, I really liked the outcome and that made me confident to continue experimenting.

Now, an Academy G version is waiting somewhere in the pile for its turn.

Happy modelling everybody!!
