Beautiful! The execution of the metallic painting and the restrained weathering is perfectly balanced.

Thanks all for the comments and likes.
Jan.. it is a nice kit, very little fit issues the only "problem" I had was with the underside. Apart from Revell moulding their logo into it (which needs sanding off), It's one big part but only has 4 or 5 small contact points to glue it so it needed a bit of tape to keep it flush and a short while to dry. That's the only part that seemed that it could have more and better contact points all the rest were fine.
The decals were really good, I avoided clear coats to keep the metallic finish as it was painted so the decals were applied straight onto the paint with just water and they were fine with no silvering at all as the carrier film is cut nice and close to the decals so they worked out nicely.

LOL! I agree with Jan! I think I Revell should pay Garett for this build - cuz I am now considering this kit as well! 😀
