Thanks Jim.
It is tempting to do a modern model... but it's also tempting to kill off my really old stack of stuff!

I now agree with Rick that the F-18 is the best of those. The others don't look very encouraging. The F-18 looks pretty good. It has 8 pages of parts (twice as much), and is way more detailed than this was.

Sadly I know I won't have any decent blocks of time from now until May, due to school.

I did the F-18 a few years ago and it's not bad at all. The main landing gear was a bit of a chore, and the weapon fit is about as accurate as this one's.

Kuba,
This one looks really good. A nice clean, balanced build. Congratulations. Both the Dauntless and the Me 410 were on my list as well. Both kits designed by Bohdan Wasiak, if I remember. I'll be interested to see what your choice is!
Chris

Great work, Kuba! You turned that kit into a real work of art.

My vote is for the Dauntless, but I'm happy to watch you build anything.

Don

Congrats Kuba on a great build. Very impressive. That is a fighter and it really looks like one.

Hmm, now that I see you have the Dauntless in your stack I think that's the one I'd like to see you build. It's the only old Maly kit I have and I'm curious to see it built - doubt that I ever will build it myself though.

Thanks for the compliments everyone!

Alright, because of popular demand I'll make the Dauntless first.
It's short and simple like this one, maybe simpler, even though I'm suspicious of its quality.

I'll try to squeeze in the F-18 afterwards.
