This is definitely not a sow's ear kit! It was designed by one of my favorite designers, Pawel Mistewicz. His designs tend to be spot on with fit.
So when you see a Maly kit with his name attached as designer, that is a good thing.
Also, started the fabrication of a vacuform mold of the canopy last night. Looks like it will just fit in my Mattel vac-u-form machine.
