Hey glad to see you finally started(still waiting on mine).

As far as posting photos, look at the top right had side of this post. You will see a toolbar list. With choices like “quote” “edit” “delete” etc. the farthest one on the right is “attach”. Click that and you will be able to add photos. Need to keep the file under 300kb or I won’t show up without need to click the link.

Any other questions or still need more help with photos just ask away, I am here to help.

I can't believe you haven't received yours yet.

I tried that attach button, but guess my pics are too big.

Did some airbrushing on the inside silver bulkheads and on the two recovery vehicles. Still need to weather.

Pack 3 shows up in a couple of days.

Ramp shipped too and should be here at the end of the week.

Looking great.
Nice to see you did the observation window mod.
Strange they were black/blue in the first place.
