Trumpeter B-25
Good detail with recessed panel lines. I recommend constructing and painting in the following order: #1) Assemble, mask, paint wing assembly w/o landing gear. #2) Assemble wing into fuselage halves. This brings the tricky part. The fuselage will have a very noticeable seam that requires filler and sanding. This is where you need to exercise caution and patience when sanding to avoid scratching the paint job on the wings. Mask off the wings and paint fuselage #3) Assemble, paint and add the rear tail section. #4) Add decals and clear coat. #5) Add Canopy... the molded canopy a tad too small so I filled gap with sheet styrene #6) Add landing gear and props at the end. This process worked best for me. I gave this 4 stars because my decals were slightly out of register and the canopy size issue. Good luck!
Surprising detail
These are really nice. Got them for the 1/350 Hornet to do the Doolittle raid. Good detail.
