Thank you!

I didn't know that Verlinden was the first to use that technique. It's a really good one...

One of the BIG problems of that kit: decals! There are Techmod ones, and taking into account my exprience with those decals, I really don't like them...

And this time, problems again: the decals broken into the water!!! Fortunately, a friend of mine who owns the kit but judged it unbuildable gived me his decal sheet as spare. Good precaution as you can see on the first photo; but even with those spares one of the fuselage decal is damaged and I will have to repair that with micro touch of paint...

That kit is bothering me...  :-bat :-bat :-bat

You're right; maybe that kit will go back on the shelves for a long time... That will give me more time for my other build in progress.
One positive thing anyway is that I've begun that kit to try wood rendering with oil paint on yellow and beige colors; and for that I'm fully satisfied with the result.
