An old kit but a good model. And those raised rivets are often appropiate for older aircraft.

Very well done, CL. and if you are so inclined, lots of rivets to count, as well.

Don't shell yourself short, that is a fine build. As for how old a kit that is let me just say I built it in 1968 and it was a few years old then also. :dancing:
