This is the old Fujimi kit of the E-2C hawkeye. It has been on my workbench for quite a while. Since i got the Kinetic/Italeri kit of the same plane in 1/48 scale, i abandoned the project. However the kit was almost done. When i found the Authentic decals set for the E-2C i decided to finish it. The fit is ok, the panel lines are o mix of raised and recessed ones and overall detail is not even close to the new Hasegawa kit of the E-2C in 1/72 scale. The decals look really nice but were hard to work with, being very fragile. Painting was done with Tamiya acrylics, and i left a little glossy finish with Future. Not a weekend project and, unless you already have this kit, go with the Kinetic or Hasegawa offering!
