Sounds a bit steep in price, but you are getting allot of great stuff to build this quality model.


Best of luck and looking forward to your build.

Did anyone make a replacement part for that vertical tail forward section with the red colored band?

Thanks, but I was asking if anyone made a simple replacement piece for the vertical tail forward section ( the kit one has the red pieces that are cut up to many sections ).

I would like a one piece wrap around section if someone has made it.


Thanks

That is not a picture of my build
as noted by Gil, mine can be seen in the gallery
I did not save any peice that I made although I did make one.

I looked at your picture in the gallery section. However, it is too far and does not appear different than the kit's part?


Anyhow, thanks

After long time looking at the cut pieces, I started the build of this model.

I will post separately.

Just for continuity sake, I started the build of this kit.
