One out of the box by Monogram. This one turned out better then I thought it would. The molding is sort of crude but looks OK when you put it all together. The only thing I had trouble with was working out where to mask the blue. It had to line up against the decals (which were old & discoloured) so I put the stripes on then couldn't mask over them without damaging them, which I did, so there are no photos of the right hand side!! Any clues to beating this problem would be appreciated.
Thanks for looking
Brian

Very nice.
Maybe clear over the decals before masking?

I like it, bigthumbsup you could put the decals on after painting the blue, you could photocopy the decals and use the copy to help line up the masking

Thanks for the suggestions. I think I'll try the photocopy idea. I tried cutting the decals close & bending them over the body but they were too thick & I couldn't tape them so the paper copy should work.
