Super Etendard Argentinean Navy

Well guys here is my Super Etendard finally finished.  I am not satisfied with the final result.  This kit turned out to be one of the most stressful builds I have ever laid my hands on.  I started this kit last year and I don't know why or how but this build is turned into a bad luck one.   It fell of my workbench 5-6 times and broke in half or in many pieces every time.

I stored it last summer and in the last week or so I felt the need to complete this build.  In the cockpit an Eduard Zoom PE set is added and the rest is OOB.  The decals are Superscale and are the first ones I've tried from their sets that is bad and with thick film that does not respond well to Gunze softners.  

I painted it with Gunze acrylics and weathered it with a home made wash and Tamiya weathering set D.
