All complete. (Ok - bonnet straps still to fit...)

Many thanks to all those who followed along with my waffly build.
It was a really good fun project.

In all, I probably used about 1/3 of the Revell kit.
A box full of spare bits to go in storage.

At times I wanted to tear my hair out and drop the whole thing in a bin but like anything to do with our hobby, hopefully it's worth it in the end.

Display case on order.

Now - what next...?

Roy.

Many thanks all you guys.
Incredibly kind words.

I do intend to add a 'how-to' to my build log for anyone who might be tempted to have a go at something similar.

Roy.
