How to use

Examine the instruction sheet for the recommended build order and part identification before starting. Remove parts from sprues carefully using a hobby knife or sprue cutters, clean up any flash and test-fit parts prior to gluing. Assemble sub-assemblies such as cockpit, wings and landing gear, allowing adhesives to cure according to manufacturer guidance. Paint model components according to chosen scheme using suitable model paints, apply decals after gloss-coating the surface if required, and finish with desired varnish or weathering techniques.

Recommendations

Use solvent- or cyanoacrylate-based plastic model adhesives for durable joins, enamel or acrylic model paints for accurate colour application, and a clear gloss coat before applying decals to prevent silvering. Work in a well-ventilated area and use fine brushes or airbrush equipment for best results.
