This is my second
submission to ARC, and my first 1/48th scale jet in a long time. It was
built OOB using the kit supplied decals, and MM metalizers and various Tamiya
acrylics.

I closed the gear doors and moved the slats to the "up"
position to achieve the in flight appearance. I also dry brushed and detailed
the cockpit but it was more for practice then to enhance it since it would be
closed. I did not rescribe the panel lines like I had originally planned to
try for the first time, deciding I would try at a later time on a 1/72nd scale
jet.
The base was made
with a $1(U.S.) piece of wood from the craft store and a $.50 dowel, then stained
with rosewood water based stain.
