Looks great! The blue was a good color choice, and it goes well with all the Alclad you did. And that's a LOT of Alclad.
I've never had the chance to build one of those Testors' kits, but they look like they go together well.

It went together really nice. The only problem was the chrome plating, A: it was too thick and B: the sprue tabs were on the parts just where they would be seen. Hence the reason to strip and use Alclad on it.
