Looks like a nice clean build except for a gap under the superstructure and above the closed hangar door. How did you find the fit throughout the kit?

That should make a nice addition to the model collection when it is finished!

It was a good kit and the gap underneath the superstructure seems to stick like that. I sanded the kit about 8 times but i think the packing of the model bent it a bit so its stuck like that.
