Yes tailor made is best period. If my f18 didn't crash I was going to paint mine also because they messed up so many things. My friend just got a f15 from SM and one of the wings says NO PETS instead of NO STEP on the entire wing...
the thing about tailor made is the attention to detail. Everything will be the right scale and he does his research. The set he makes for the landing gear alone is second to none.
shipping was easy all the time from him. I did my f15 and f22 with him. Also had him do the landing gear and fighting omars on the f18 since skymaster was unable to do it.
