:D  no probs  :D
the two versions of the same aircraft being built at the same time gives everbody a chance to see what a good kit this is.  :bow:
for a garage kit it is  :bow: VERY WELL  :bow:  made better than some kits from some of the large manufactures add on parts i have used over the years  :ill: , and apart from those problems you told me about with the need for filler "and sanding it all down  :zzz: ", I  have had no problems at all.
Please continue to show your aircraft on this thread if you wish as i enjoy seeing you conventional " Big ship/airbase " fighter as a counterpoint to my small ship version  :tornado:

Thanks for the good words lenny (bribe in the post LOL)

Most of the credit should go to Thorvic, as he mastered the kit, and TSRjoe also desevers credit for donateing the RTV for the first set of moulds and showing me the ropes on the moulding and casting side.
I always hope for the best.

My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;
I thought that love would last forever; I was wrong.

The stars are not wanted now; put out every one:
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun;
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the woods:
For nothing now can ever come to any good.

The english word to describe such beauty escapes me at this time.

Comes to mind something in spanish, but it is a very strong interjection. :rolleyes:

That color is like icing on the cake, gives it a natural naval look.

Really I have to hand all the praises to the authors of this model and to the modeler in charge of thist thread.

There's no "wrong" way of building this model

Saludos.
