Excellent review of an excellent kit.
Mine's in the gallery here

Great review......
I have built the viper and found with a little tape you can dry fit the whoile thing together less the landing gear. I only found a few problems, the rear landing gear cannot be fitted at the end of the build, the seams around the side intakes are a little difficult to fill and clean up. Other than that it snaps to gether yery well. I have bought another one to build this time I will Paint the red stripes onto the kit.

And So It Begins

Mine is on the bench still...anyone have a suggestion for paint colors for the pilots uniform? The gold/green is pretty hard to duplicate.  I tried Testors Lime Gold Metallic...no luck. Then I tried basic flat green mixed with silver...still no luck. Green with gold....nada. It doesn't need to be 100% accurate, but close would be nice.

Actually, no mods were made. One is the pilot from the Mk2, the other's a Mk7 pilot.
And you're welcome.
