I built this kit. It's not easy to complete especailly attaching decals but I think it good challenge and worth to challenge.

There are some fit issues…taking my time with it. Thanks for tuning in and the feedback. Take care! Drew

If planning on getting this, word of WARNING... When removing the Control Stick, use a Razor Saw instead of Sprue Cutters. I ended up Snapping the Control Stick on my kit into 2-parts and was able to replace it with a "spare" Control Stick from a Hasegawa kit I have. I could NOT glue the broken parts together after it snapped on me...

Thanks for the heads up!

@@DrewsModels No problem.

Looks like a good one amigo. It will be interesting to see how the decals work. I've built a couple of Academy armor kits and the decals were hideous. They would not settle in with any decal solvents I had and they were super thick. It may be different with their aircraft kits, though. Watching this makes me want to tackle the F-15C I have... maybe after my current aircraft project!

Thanks, Brett! Yes, regular Academy decals are not great. I may look into AM decals. Take care…Drew
