This kit was made by Antares of South America, there is another Antares in Eastern Europe.  The resin is all a yellow color, it is brittle but does not seem to be fragile.  I had to warm up one wing tip and the horizontal stabilizer to get them back into shape, and the chips on the stab were small enough I just sanded them out and made the other side match.  I will be building it gear up, getting all four wheels on the ground and having the airplane level at the same time might be fun.  Been there done that on the He-111Z.  It is the kind of airplane that looks best clean, I think.  Aves Epoxysculpt at work here.
