1/48 Italeri EF2000

This is the first kit I've built in 20 years, I got it for Christmas from parents – it made me come back to modelling. It is built straight from the box, no special techniques used. Painting is done by hand, using Revell paints and two paintbrushes which I bought in supermarket. The “camouflage” is designed by me.

The kit has recessed panel lines, parts fits together nicely. There was gap left between top part of the wing and fuselage but I guess it was mostly caused by my imperfect work. I wanted to have fun with designing the looks, so the actual sanding and gluing phase was very quick.

Good kit, also has nice decals with stencils – I can recommend it for a no-trouble out of the box build. I definitely had a lot of fun. If you like shark mouths and would like to do something different, you can get some inspiration from me.
