| This is the first balsa model I had built since the mid 90’s. I discovered the West Wings kits through ebay and decided to build one. Very happy with the kit. Good quality wood, easy to understand construction. Nothing surprising, just a good kit to get back into balsa model building. |

| Thanks everyone! @BriandKilby: The paints worked fine. I did dilute them with water to use in the airbrush, but didn't get any checking or birdseyes on the model. It was my first time using Acrylic model paints. Acrylics were not that available last time I build a model (mid 90's). I didn't know how they were going to work. I was pleasantly surprised, and so much easier to work with! |

| acrylics come out better, but enamel is easier to clean up. that's from my experience. less steps to do on enamel. |
