I found this kit in the 2nd hand section of my local model shop and thought it will be a fun project. I like the lines of the plane and of course there is some nostalgia with it being the first Allied jet plane of WW2. I finished it with Tamiya paints, and in keeping with my preference to have my model planes look almost new, I coated it with a layer of semi-gloss clear paint after applying the decals.

Despite their age, the decals went on without a glitch.

A quick and nice “fun-built” indeed. Enjoy.
