there's already significant progress, mostly in construction of the bigger pieces.
first off, opening the box & viewing the content.
the kit itsself looks pretty decent, but lacks interiour detail, there is no cockpit, only a blank space, but since i dont have much free time to model for the moment due to other priorities, it will just have to do and will have no implications on the finished product. there are only a few parts, about 60 of them, not counting the display stand. there's no skill level on the box, but looks like a 2.

first job, fitting the observer windows and paiting the interiour (only 1 coat), pretty simple and straight forward, but before that i had to remove a lot of flash, especially from a kit this old (about 30 years old).

then, i started on the wings, again, a lot of flash to remove and cut, especially the spreus witch were moulded very thickly.
all in all, the fit seemed acceptable, no serious problems, except maybe the fitting of the ailerons.
tomorrow, im gonna start on the assembly of the tail and putting the 2 fuselage halves together, witch isnt gonna be easy as i noticed the parts are a bit warped
