Hard to say against the similar wood tone background...

Now that's what I call red.

The Italieri Red looked more orange than red.

Wow, that is sensational. Beautiful job! It's the perfect shade of red for this plane.

That is some fast work! But it is a nice kit. How did you find the fit of the wings? I had so me problems with that.

To glue wings was the hardest part of the kit. I opted for the tamiya green cap instead of ca glue but some point of CA was needed at the end. Now the whole wings block seens strong. I'm curious if the other i-5 variant are better enginereed.
