Coming along nicely, they always looked good in white and gray.

Yes I have previously made both versions from the Airfix kit many years ago. I still have the built models but they are not quite upto my more recent standard of build. They're ok if viewed from about 10 feet plus.

Interesting to see that you've 'tooled it up' before decalling.

Decalling in progress. This kit, probably because I've had it a long while, it's decals had crinkled. Luckily I had another identical kit but it's decals were not quite as bad. So I scanned those in and created some new ones. That's why this is taking a bit longer. Hopefully I'll be finished in a few days.

Finished at last. The decals took a while to put on.
The Fujimi is a nice kit - parts fitted together well.
