The wing underside needed some sanding to fit the oversides of the wing correctly, the fit is extremely tight all around apart from the front side joining of the fuselage to the wing section, and a tiny gap between the spine and the tailfin. Everything else was fixable by sanding alone.
How do italeri make kits so badly even nowadays?
