I finished this Trumperter kit last year and really enjoyed the build. Thanks to Tom Trankle for taking and hosting these great shots of my model. MP

VERY nice workmanship and detail. Did you add anything to it or is it OOTB?

Thanks all very much :wave: The Condor kit almost perfect right out of the box but I wanted better detailing in the flaps and cockpit. It has all the Eduard photoetch sets available and a set of resin tires. The decals are from my spares box and the paint is all Xtracolor from the UK. Also I installed a 1.5 volt lighting system throughout the cabin and it now has the FuG 200 Hohentwiel radar array on the nose which looks awesome but makes me pretty nervous when people hover over it at model contests :drunk: That radar array took two weeks to construct.
