Very nice build you have going there. Really like the paint detail and
subtle weathering.
Cheers.

I am really liking what you’re doing here with the Meng kit!

I like a lot your building.I specially like the seats and the engines.They look very “Vintage” as they must be.

Really good details!

Ditto! Its looks spectacular.

Are there AM decals for the kit?

Yes, pretty sure there are.

Thanks, I found it funny there is one marking option.
