This is another build that I aim to tackle in a short time frame. The kit is the Testors F-5 from the Top Gun boxset and will built to represent a MiG-28 from the movie.

I've spent the day putting this together. I forgot to take a picture of the cockpit before I stuck the canopies in place.

I have to say i'm really starting to go off this Humbrol Gloss stuff. I've given this kit 3 heavy coats and is still looks barely satin. The decals again have silvered. Ah well.
