This kit needs some correction and modification. I have started to correct the nose shape by using AMS resin set. You can see this story on the attached pictures.

Cockpit set is from Aires...
I'm lovin' the instrument panel! I'm just finishing up the F-100F, I'll have to look for one of these to put in the Hun collection.
Air speed brake and exhaust replaced by Aires sets. Nose correction needs some sanding and puttying

That looks damn clean and shiny Tolga. Looking forward to the end result.

How much time would you say you have invested at this point.
Looks great, I am building my first Trumpeter kit and find some of the detail astounding and some of the mistakes they made baffling!
There has been more than 4-5 weeks from the beginning, but this is the gross time. Pure (net) time is approx one or two weeks.
Thanks Rob As a matter of fact I do not like Trumpeter s kits. Maybe this one is more acceptable than the others.
Exhaust area painted by using different tones of Alclad lacquers. Now it is the time to begin for painting SEA camouflage.
