Summary
I really enjoyed this model. It’s quite a straightforward build with no unnecessary detail that won’t be seen. Surface detail is good, fit is good and the instructions are clear and logical. My only really observations are the lack of seatbelts, poor colour call outs in the instructions and the decals which, although very good, need careful handling.
I think the finished model looks great and the kit is well within the capabilities of most modellers – highly recommended and well done ICM, looking forward to the Tiger Moth.
