    I have never laughed so much while watching a modeling video! The idea is absolutely brilliant. To reproduce!

      😉Glad you liked my video! Perhaps I didn't have to try too much thoug, as these are quite dry normally...

      Thanks! This scheme caught my eye right when I saw it and didn't let go. Therefore I couldn't make any of those 12! (jor Japanese) decal options.. nice that you liked it too!

    Lovely starfighter! Built two of these kits myself and most likely will build more. Found that adding a thin piece of styrene to the bottom of the air intake parts makes them fit really great when building following the instructions. But i'll certainly try your method for those intakes, maybe that will work better

      Thank you! I always hesitate to build like the instructions say when it says build half and other half and try to align those. And they tell you to put the lannding gear on to the aft part before you attach fuselage together. To me it would be disaster right there. In this way it went together really nicely without any filler to those parts.
      I also have some of these in stash and I'm going to build another one surely.

      @@TV-ez4md i also didn't attach the landing gear up until model is fully done. Did it the same way you went with it. Joining the front and back assembly didn't give me trouble both times if you spent some tine for basic aligning, because you're basically only aligning the top side and a slot for the part locking the main landing gear. Provided you built front and back without any deformations it should join together fine

      Yes, I suppose it is standard procedure to put the landing gear last whatever instructions say.. Perhaps it would go together as instructions show as you say as the front and rear part fits very well. Mabye I will test it with my next Hasegawa Starfighter, or mabye not... 😁

    Where did you get your water warmer for decals?

      It is just coffee cup warming pad 🙂 I use lid from some dessert to hold water on top of it. Those pads can be found about everywhere, Amazon, ebay, Temu etc...
