A very nice looking model and all so neatly finished.

Been a real pleasure watching this one come together and seeing how you have overcome some of the kits issues.

Hi Chris, You have really explained in detail the full build log better than the instruction manuals and I have enjoyed seeing your photos with close ups details. What is your next project? I hope to start the build this year. Well Done Regards, Joe
