This is the 1/48 scale F4D-1 Skyray by Tamiya. It was completly OOB and painted using Tamiya Acrylics per the instruction callout. It was a quite simplistic build and makes a nice kit especially for an amatuer builder. The kit comes with two decal options and were of decent quality. if doing the kit again sometime, I would probably opt for aftermarket decals just to have more options.
