Yes. The parts fit is straightforward and the instructions are clear, making it accessible for newcomers who have basic glue and paint experience.
For best results use enamel or acrylic aircraft paints and a fine brush or airbrush for large areas. A matte or satin clear coat helps seal decals and even out the finish.
No aftermarket parts are required to complete a pleasing model, but advanced builders sometimes add photoetch or resin details to enhance cockpit and landing gear realism.
