Matto Posted February 21, 2012 Author Share Posted February 21, 2012 Thank you all for your very kind comments! :D Why I didn't notice the antenna mast was missing before taking the photos I don't know but thanks for pointing it out! The model was painted using Tamiya acrylics using the mixes recommended in the instructions - I can't remember the colours now but I can check if needs be. Thanks again for your comments, very much appreciated. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Plano Guy Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 "Go easy" my butt!! Your spit looks great. You're SECOND model?? How is it I spent years building planes that looked like they were built with Elmers glue and painted with crayons before I got to where I could make them look as good as yours? You special or someting? That's a great looking model sir! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
