Exhibits A & B illustrate the location of the fit issues on my assembling of this kit.
With a bit more care I might have avoided the issues in the centre section/rear fuselage area but the rest are down to Hasegawa.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Painting now.

I'm using my usual scheme for RAN FAA birds - EDSG over Sky with Red intake lips.  I may add a touch of blue to the EDSG on this one as I like the look of this presumably "adjusted" photo.

Could just be the lighting conditions ? Although the red looks rather orange ?
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

The red in the roundel looks orange, too, but that won't hurt a whif EDSG. ;) :thumbsup:

Turns out I don't have Extra Dark Sea Grey, just Dark Sea Grey.  To which I added IDF Blue.
It looks bluer in my photo than IRL.

That's going to look SENSATIONAL!  :thumbsup:
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Regards

OK, i'm pulling the pin on trying to get this done by the deadline.
If I try to rush it i'm going to screw it up and i'm liking it too much to do that.
There isn't too much to do but I want to do it properly.

Good call, that's looking way too good to screw up by rushing it.  :thumbsup:
