As do I  :bow:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Now those are some SERIOUS skis!  :o

But then  they'd have to be with a Shack sitting on them.  ;D
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

Massive decal disintegration, had to order some new ones from e-bay, fingers crossed they arrive in time.

Teaser shots of the skis.

Finished.  Ended up printing the large wing roundel decals on my ink jet, didn't want to wait on ebay.  Wanted to get this one done, my least favorite kit in my last 30 builds or so.  White, rivets, poor fit, lost interest, my mistakes, a drop, decals disintegrated- fought me every step.
