Thanks guys, it's been a no stress fun build this one, I highly recommend the old Hasegawa 109, not sure accuracy wise, I suspect the tail is small, but it's a cracking easy build, great fit, lovely fine surface detail, cheap as chips, what more could you want?

Got home tonight and stuck ont he dangly wheelie bits, and prop, unmasked and we are done..

I'll take some outside shots in the next couple of days.

Thanks Paul for suggesting this group build, great fun.

Cheers
Jim

A good model is any model you can walk away from.

Sorry, Jim. I hadn't blundered across your build before today. Lovely rendition of this very colourful scheme!
