Hello Jose,
Thank you for looking!
I'm not gona to "super" detail it, as well it depends super detailling.
I will use the photoetch set and the decals from Studio27, but will make a little bit of scratchbuilding by myself.
I hope you will enjoy the WIP.
Greetings,
Jamme

Are you planning on super detailing it (adding PE parts and so)? I've read that there are some sets in the market for this model.
Thanks for sharing.
