Trumpeter 1/72 Lightning F.Mk.2
I got round to finishing this kit recently. The only real mod was to replace the back end with a resin one due to the kits back end being far too slim.

I like it. What paint colour did you use for the upper green camo?

I like it. I'm not a fan of the NMF with the large red accents. This looks a lot better in my opinion
