I started this last week and found that it is a real nice kit. I purchased it from the Brother's of Sprue as over trees. So I have no decals, instructions or pe. I got the instructions from Eduards site and pieces together some seat belts from a collection of spares that I had for the past couple of years so they are not all that complete but close. The sub assemblies went together with out a real fuss and fit quite nicely into the fuselage which I closed up before I inserted the pit and engine. That way, as I saw it, I was able to take care3 of any seams or gaps if they popped up, luckily they didn't. I am thinking I will probably try a civilian livery of some sort so no heavy weathering if any at all.

Really good looking plane. You did well with this paint scheme and mottling. Nice going.
Paul, I'm right there with Greg as to a total disinterest regarding the 108, but geez did make one pretty plane. Very nice indeed.
Wow - I was totally uninterested in the 108 as a subject until I saw it finished in this scheme! I actually sold off my one 108 kit a while back in a stash reduction sale, thinking it was one I would never get around to building, but now I may need to secure another! This looks fantastic.
Well this is as done as it will get. Not really a bad kit but you surely need to have pe on this to do it justice. I use a cookie decorating stencil of a clouded leopard for the mottling and the rest of the scheme I just made up as I went along.
