Nicely done ;-) You've actually made something from one of these Tamiya horrors 8-)

I can't talk, I've 8 or so of these 1/100 Tamiya kits, they all have issues, some serious (F-104G/J - the worst, F-4E), some not so bad like this A-6 if you can overlook the obvious scaling issues and it's oversized nose ;-)
