Thank you for your kind words! Painting the surface to imitate corrugated iron with straight lines was a bit of a challenge. Initially, I tried to paint camo pattern from a stencil, but the paint got under the masking tape and in the end I did everything "by hand", apart from the yellow elements, of course, but here it was much easier because they were along the lines (except for the strip on the fuselage - I take into account (I will have to correct it a bit after removing the mask, but we'll see what happens). I also changed the concept of engine construction. The unclear instructions and the moderate fit of the engine to the housing led me to paint everything with primer again and paint it in a metallic color again. In my version, the exhaust pipe outlets also had to be moved by cutting out parts of the housing. However, in the end, everyone sticks together. the resin wheels turned out to be quite average. I think that I would make a set from a box at a similar level, so I don't think I recommend this enrichment. The casting had some bubbles that came out when sawed from the mold. And some visible inequalities. This will probably disappear with the final finish, but I leave the question of whether it was worth spending the 6 EUR on the wheels to you.
