Its not just how good your painting is, its how good the touch-ups are too.

That's a shame Craig but I know what you mean about this kit. Not one of Eduards best. To be fair to them I think it's one of their early products and is showing it's age a bit.
Very glad I didn't buy the profi-pack edition. Still, it will look like an L-39 when completed and I'm looking forward to seeing it.
