Looking good, Toby.

Small comfort, but I also had the same issue with my wings, and with the front fuselage - glad it wasn't just me, then! None of the web/mag reviews I've seen mention those issues.................................................... :-|

All done. A few issues as have been pointed by various people and the next one I do I'll pay more attention to rectifying the problems but overall fairly pleased.

Not all magazines are really truthful about the shortcomings of the kits they revue, some seem to be based on the idea that the revue must flatter to keep the flow of free goodies coming their way.

Very true. I remember Top Gear slagging off the Vauxhall Vectra. They haven't had car from then since.
Thanks guys for the generous comments. I have two more in the stash so know what expect next time I build one.
