This kit is best for intermediate builders. Some prior experience helps when fitting small parts and dealing with fine seams.
For authentic finishes use standard aircraft acrylics in the markings and camouflage tones typical of trainer schemes; check reference photos for exact shades.
Decals are included for R.O.K. Air Force markings. Use decal softener and a flat coat to settle them around panel lines for a painted-on look.
At minimum, have hobby knives, fine files, plastic cement, tweezers, and sanding sticks. A good set of brushes or an airbrush will improve finish quality.
