So I've got some time free but too tired to fiddle with tiny stencils, so shit kit time!
My entry will be Airfix's Vertol. The boxing I have is from 1989, but the tooling itself is from 1965. As an extra bonus this kit has been partially pre-built back in the nineties by a friend's brother. (My friend found it in his cellar a few months back and tossed it a the only one around who might give a fuck, me. The quality of work there is probably about what you'd expect from a ten year old or so. Mould liens unmolested, nubs dealt with in a rather crude way, and so on. Some kind of general purpose (ie polystyrene-incapable) hobby glue has been sued, which is a good thing here since it means I can tear the bits apart again and peel off the glue. Some quick dry fitting and overall fuselage fit might not be atrocious, but the pilots, oh dear... it'd be nice if I could force them in though as that'd help hide the seats.
Other things of note is a pair of major ejector pin marks on the front of the rear-of-cockpit bulkhead, the opening in said bulkhead being solid, not interior past it, completely flat instrument panel with no decal for it, a good amount of flash and mould lines, and the front transparency only having raised hairline panel lines to separate the windows form the bits to paint so that'll be a real party to mask up.
