Well done Dale and a reminder to myself to get some canopy masks

Thanks George! Yes, the masks save a lot of work and the older I get the easier the better.

This is a real beauty Dale @dtravis
……………. and is typical of all your builds.
I can always tell your work from others. You have several key ingredients in each one. First, building something rare. Second, create a museum quality build. Third, have a flawless and not often seen camouflage paint job.
That’s what sets your stuff apart. I have two of these kits in the stash and was planning on building them sometime next year. Are there any tricky spots to watch out for ???

Thanks for your positive comments Louis! The build was no problem. I’ts , in my opinion, one of Hasegawa’s best kits. I think you’ll really enjoy doing it.
