Sorry for the poor quality pics ( the camera is one of my worst enemy in many way,I noted some error omly after check the pics...). This is a first batch of picture 'cause I've to finish the model display base and add the canopy release handle.

kurnass77 Posted December 26, 2012 Author Share Posted December 26, 2012 Thanks all guys!!! Awesome. Hadn't seen a model from you in a while. I may have missed them but glad I didn't miss this one. My friend, the second half of this year was terrible,two hours ago I had yet another bad news:last night one of my cousins was walking home with some friends after a uneventful trip from his uncle to search for any type of work and have had a car accident.Now is recovered in an Viterbo's hospital where he had several stitches and operated with one hand, according to initial news would have lost half a finger. I hope that 2012 finish really quickly... Gianni Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CrowTRobot Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 (edited) Nice work, Gianni. It looks like a battle-hardened Thud ready to go out and kick some more a**. Edited December 27, 2012 by CrowTRobot Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kurnass77 Posted December 28, 2012 Author Share Posted December 28, 2012 Nice work, Gianni. It looks like a battle-hardened Thud ready to go out and kick some more a**. :chain-gun:/> Thanks mate,and thanks again for your priceless help!!! Probably I've overdone the various effect of my Thud ( if only mine look half better of your's...), but as I mentioned in the WIP,my intentior was build yhr "Belle" during the deploynent era. Lesson learn (recently has crept into my mind the idea to build the F-105F of Thorsness...) Gianni. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
