It´s not for the "adult modeller"
The original box was too big for my stash space, so I put it in a smaller one:
it comes with a krappy brush that might be still good enuff for dry brushing, a paint tray with 3 colours:
seems, the lids are more or less airtight - I bought it about a year ago, and at least red & yellow are still fluid
(Haven´t tried them out yet, this tray can have its purpose, for mixing your own stuff, f.e., methinks)
and there´s a bulky stand:
as you can expect from a snap fit kit, parts count is really low:
fit of parts is ok, but not overwhelming. Seam lines quite showy, see the pics down below!
I´m goin to glue it, but beware! the plastic surface here is very slick, it´s better to sand the surface you want
to put glue on, a bit, so the glue can do its melting process.
I already tried to glue in the ´pit, I didn´t sand before; for the pics, I could pull the parts off, and the glue hadn´t melted at all
the markings in this one are interesting, and a bit unusual: for 2 Canadian birds:
transfers look well printed!
Theres another boxing of this kit available, with an USAAF marking option, for some yellow tailed bird.
Built OOB, it will look a bit toyish, but with some TLC, quite ok, I believe.
The way it´s made, it reminds me a lot of the old Matchbox Mustang
One could argue: why get this kit, and then have to spend some extra time, just to make it look good,
when there are so many other Mustang kits out there, that arent necessarily expensive?
Well, if you have a kid at home, that wants to do some dogfights in the living room, it´s still interesting -
there are not many parts on it, that can break off!
theres no wheels down option, so those cannot break off
The spinner is a bit bulgy, but sanding will take care of that:
theres no pilot offered! though u can only build it in-flight -
enuff pilots in my spares box, for these cases:
the canopy is, very "matchboxy"-like, thick, but remarkably clear! only little distortion
(you can see in the pic, that I cut off the exhausts, didn´t like them, I´ll use ones from the spares box)
Shapewise, the kit is not too bad, but leading and trailing edges do look klunky, indeed:
Well, I´m one that likes to make simple kits look better,
so, for my purposes, this will be fun to build!
(But dunno yet, when to start on it....)
-- or should that be vulgar ones, like fractions?
