I built this Lightning some 3-4 years ago. It's built more or less straight from the box, with additional rod wire and plastic card for the cockpit interior and plastic card FOD cover.

All decals came from the kit - chopped around suitably to depict Wing Commander Jarron's "Black Finned Beauty" - XS903 "BA" in 11 Sqn markings. I've probably over-weathered it a little - for a Wing Commanders bird anyway(!) - but it was fun!
