Hello again, I'm back with another build I started this a while ago and needed a break.. Just the wing work alone was very time consuming. So, while watching paint dry on another project I decided it was time to get back at this ship..

Well, here is some pic's lot's of work to do I will slowly keep at this. But thought, if I started a thread I may stay more adamant on getting more done. I plan to redo most of the detail, I have started on a new cockpit and hope to light the whole thing up.

So far I have worked on the wing's completely removed all the detail and rescribed with my Tamiya scriber mostly and a metal ruler. The line's were raised as a MPC kit. The styrene detail came came out looking good after a primer coat.

Here is the picture's before and after feel free to comment..

One wing stripped and one as it came from the kit.

After some work on the wing's they came out looking like this. I removed the detail and used styrene to run up each side of the wing I used small bit's cut. I have had a hard time getting a clear picture of that detail.
