Absolutely gorgeous kit...there are no critics...as I've mentioned before, the kit is just great, much more than you expect from anow under $20 kit. The quality of the parts, the fitting, Tuesday attention to detail, beautiful cockpit and very nice detailed engine. The engraving is super. As you can see in my pictures, I cut the cowling in have and added some details so it might be possible to appreciate the engine.. It is a great kit for the value. About the paint, I've also tried to mat6the cream color but finally painted white witch also looks great... Decals are superb.... Don't let this kit out of your collection and enjoy building a super nice kit

Not sure if it is a hard to find color, but I couldn't find cream at a store so I had to use a close substitute that worked well. There were also a couple of pieces that didn't fit together well but overall I enjoyed the plane and would recommend it as long as you don't get frustrated easily, since it is small.

This is a good kit. Most parts fit well, and the decals are good. Instructions can be a bit confusing but take your time and you will have a nice model of a very cool looking airplane.
