Me too mate, if 1 more thing happens with this kit, it is going to see what forces are applied to a real aircraft when it crashes.

To be honest, I hope it doesn't come to that. I think this is looking fantastic right now and would look great on your shelf. It is your model though, so...

Looking forward to seeing more.

Oh me too, I just have had my patience with this kit pulled very thinly. That is why I am taking my time with it, it gives me a break between frustrations. I think once I make a new stand for it, it will be nice.

You guys won't believe it but I am so so close to done. Need that stand to cure in place, and flat coat and boom, done.

That is one to be proud of!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Looks very nice, Declan, but why a flat coat? Unless the paint is very old, it would more likely be glossy.

I noticed that too. A majority of civil aircrafts are glossy coats never flat.
