Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Its not that bad a kit. Ive made it myself, but you will need quite a bit of putty to make it look like a standard italeri kit. If i had the choice beteween the KP and Eduard kit, id choose the Eduard kit.
I also noticed that you made wheel wells, i dont remember them.

Actually, the wheel wells for the main gear are there already. Since the photos were taken, I have used paint to give the impression of a nose gear wheel well!

Very cool!  I like the finished product.  That kit looked more interesting to build than the KP one I did earlier this year.

I just like the looks of this little plane.  Love to own a real one, but that's for the people with more money than brains (Like GM's Bob Lutz, who calls his a "Mig" instead of "Czech trainer.")

It is?  Then what the hell did I build?  All's I know it was simple, had no wheel wells, and looks ok.

There is no well for the nose gear but the wing wheel wells are there, and also in the 2nd kit I have as well. Maybe there were two different toolings of the kit?

I know, incredible isn't it!    :lol:

Actually, I'm involved in a titanic battle with their L-29 Delfin, it's not looking pretty I can tell you!

The intention was to put it into 1960's RAF silver and yellow training colours but it just shows too many blemishes!  :wacko:

Back to the drawing board methinks!
