Nice model.

A friend of mine has also built one of these and it looks a really nice kit.

Never seen one of these. The Kit looks very detailed.

Very nice topic

[Big Messer]

What is the purpose of the large hinged lid between the cockpit and the hood?

[Big John]

I would venture to guess that it is for Accessing the magneto since it appears to be hidden behind a firewall. (true this is a highly detailed model but I expect is accurate)

Painted with Vallejo acrylics.  Model air French blue over mecha color sky blue.

paints mixed in airbrush cup with with a bush using several drops of airbrush flow improver, a little Vallejo thinner and a drop of retarder medium 

.5mm needle at 25 psi

Will remove flexible tamiya masking tape tomorrow and see if any French blue bleed under it

Clean parting line

tamiya flexible tape worked great
