How long does this build typically take?

Expect a few evenings to several weekends depending on your skill level and the amount of paint and weathering you apply. Detailed cockpit work will add time.

What paints are recommended for the markings?

Use enamel or acrylic model paints in tones matching the Area88 scheme; matt and semi-gloss finishes both work well for the Thunderchief's look. Test colours on spare plastic first.

Can this kit be enhanced with aftermarket parts?

Yes, builders often add resin seats, photo-etch details, or master decals to improve realism. Check fit and scale before buying upgrades.
