Thank you all! 😄

@Soeren R. - Its a decent kit. Very detailed and goes together well for most parts. However the upper avionics package has a seam that needs fixing and there's lots of details to add back after sanding. Kit seem to be designed with all panels open - including the nose - so not all of them fit too well in closed position. The panels are not completely flush with the fuselage. I may bother you, but I went with the ehh good enough approach. Also there's a few raised lines along the fuselage from the molding process that need sanding down.
That being said all other parts fit very well! I like the included masks, weight, metal pitot - even the viny tires were good (i dont usually like those). The PE is very thick og vinyl seatbelts were a bit tricky to get right.
The cockpit also looks quite nice out of the box!

So lots of good things - some bad. I would not mind building another variant should they release it.

Think the only other kits available are Hasegawa and HobbyBoss. Im sure they have their own shortcomings. What you get for ~65€ from Magic Factory is very fair.

Album info

My recent build - Magic Factory A-4M Skyhawk 1/48

Fun build what went mostly fine. Only a few hiccups along the way - mostly down to me not doing a bit of research.
I went with a darker grey by mistake, but I really like the look so I kept it ?

Fit wise i'll call it a 85%. Some parts were very well thought out and others could need extra attention. I think the kit is designed to be displayed with all panels etc open.

Took about 6 weeks from start to finish.

Im looking forward to the next kit from the stash ?
