I bought this model kit during a sale at HHQ Malaysia. This kit is produced by ICM. The kit quality is fairly good. Quite a substantial amount of work was required to cover all the seam lines after assembly. The instruction and parts number are also very confusing. Assembly took about 7-8 hours. I spent another 7-8 hours for painting.
This is the first time I am painting a Winter Camouflage scheme. During the winter, the ground crew painted the aircraft white with any available tools (from brushes to brooms). The quality is really bad and the paint peels off quickly, revealing the original paintwork.
