This is my first ever submission to ARC and to be quite frank I'm only 16 and a total beginner at modeling.  I would be very thankful if I could get some feedback from the fine members of ARC.

I was given this fantastic kit by my grandfather when I was only young.  It was only around 6 months ago that I saw it hidden in a corner in the loft, and that was when my modeling craze began.  Considering its age (25 years ish) it fit together remarkably well, with only small wing gaps in need of a little filling.  I used Humbrol enamels throughout, and tried my very hardest to make the whole model look a decent job. 

I am completely open to any criticism that all of you experienced moddelers may have, or even any tips that you may have to help me improve future models. 

If only I had found this site before I had started the model, then perhaps it could have turned out a whole lot better.  Overall, considering its my first ever OOB build I'm pretty impressed with it!  I can only hope I will continue to improve.
