Hello, a Happy New Year to all.

So, for the first time I will take part on a GB and do (I hope) an easy kit, mostly to train my painting and weathering skills.

This is it:

Building it straight out of box inflight.

I cleaned the fuselage and cockpit parts.

Greetings to the Kraichgau from Hamburg! :bye:

Be welcome to our groupbuild. I think it's never a mistake to start a Tamiya kit. I also like the inflight idea.

Good detail painting! Will you get the seat some belts?

No seat belts - I will put the pilot-dummy in there.
I call him 'Horst' :D
