A kit with issues at a good price - G. Nagy - Altamonte Springs FL
I have recently started building models again after a break of over 10 years, and while I was never stellar I could hold my own and build some nice models, though they were definitely not show quality.
This kit is a great value for the size of plane you get for roughly , but for that price there have been some short cuts taken.
The fit: the main body and wings of the plane fit very nicely with minimum patching a putty needed to fill in gaps. The nose section however is very ill fitting and not only requires putty but also some sanding and reshaping to fit properly. If this is not done the pieces for the nose glass will not fit properly leaving gaps. If you are inexperienced this might cause a challenge far beyond the skill 2 rating on the box. I have also found that mounting the bombs in the manner given in the instructions will cause the body of the plane not to fit together. Lastly I wanted to mention that if you like building your airplanes with wheels up, as I do, you will have to do some modifications to the wheel well covers and the ladder hatches to have them fit properly.
Building straight out of the box, the quality and detail is what you would expect out of a budget priced kit, but as I have said the overall fit is not bad. Details to things like the machine guns and engine exhaust ducts are pretty basic, but with some work this kit can be made to look pretty nice.
