Avanti!

Planning to mimic it a bit, but only a bit as I don't plan to open the door 

 

Seems legit 🙂 (the sprue comes from Revell's EC-135) 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Original shafts were to thinand too brittle - I used some pins instead 

Landing gear attached 

Aerials on 

First chrome ever, for me looks quite good. 

The decals don't really fit the shape, but they don't get wrinkles at all! I have to find matching red color anyway (for the undersides) 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cleaning in progress... 

Looks bit like the Hammerhead, doesn't it? 😉 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The fit of Caracal decals is not jawdropping at all... 

 

It turns out the topside of the wings doesn't have the registration (though Caracal provides two sets of big Ids, just in case) 

 

Decals designer vs kit designer 😉 

Lost the front gear yesterday, scratched the new only to find the original the next day 😉 

Final result of the nose works (black hair has been removed since then) 

 

 

Starboard is not so impressive, as usual I have problems with masking borders. 

Port side looks much better.
