    This 1/18th scale (I think) example wasn't really much of a "kit" in the sense that it only consisted of maybe a dozen or so pieces. It was, I'm assuming, a promotional "bar hanger" (for lack of a better term).
    It was bright yellow and black lettering proudly displaying "Canadian Mist" all over the fuselage and wings. The 'windows' were merely black stick-on's and very little detail was present.
    I stripped it down, disassembled it and re-painted it in US Army livery. I wanted to do a White/Orange "Coast Guard" version, but didn't have/couldn't find the appropriate markings.

    And for you sharp-eyed members out there, yes...the national insignia is on the wrong wing...I'll fix that.
