I'm calling this finished, but.......................
I'm not really happy with this, I seem to have lost my way during the lengthy build. Didn't really help to have been ill, and when I lost the canopy, it nearly went into the bin!
The Sword Model is a good short run kit - a lot of dryfitting, and fettling, but the fit is generally good. The instructions are OK, but a little sketchy - despite me adding weight in the nose, and the nosebay, it's a tailsitter - hence the piece of wire acting as a prop! The instructions make no mention of weight! I didn't use the included radar operators cabin bits - I didn't think that you would see enough though the hatches.
Thanks for dropping by - the next FAA build title will be -
Post War 1/72 FAA - Part 2 - Cyber Hobby De Havilland Sea Vixen FAW.2 - in a week or so
