I mentioned recently the Dornier 17z I have been working on.
As with all Classic Airframes kits, there's considerable input to be made, but the rewards are always worth it.
The cockpit was mostly resin and built up very well, with some convincing detail. I just added the seat belts. The canopy was one thing I thought would be tricky, as is often the case with a limited run kit. I need not have worried - the fit was perfect. The wing and fuselage fit were also fine. The landing gear was more ponderous, and I had to watch out with the front forks.
There is always plenty of rubbing down with these kits, and then the rescribing of the last panel lines.
The bomb bay deserves particular mention; Classic Airframes made a lot of effort to provide detailed resin parts and two 1000lb bombs. These are a nice touch to finish off a lovely model.
The kit offered four aircraft markings in the paint guide - the most colourful scheme is the 3/KG2. This has its spinners, cowlings and rudders in yellow. The decals are thin, the register is good and they responded well to setting solution.
Here are some photos. It's a really rewarding kit of an eye-catching plane.
