Oh, that's nice work.  :wub:  Always good to see someone do the TSR.2, a toughy, but looks good when done.  :thumbsup:
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

I quit. I'm going to pack up and sell my models and supplies.
Maybe I'll take up a new hobby. Like building LEGO.

Can you compete? ;)

That does it! I quit! I quit any and all hobbies.
Modeling isn't just about how good the gluing or painting, etc. looks. It's also about how creative and imaginative you can be with a subject.
My modeling philosophy is: Don't build what everyone else has done. Build instead what nobody has seen or done before.

Decades ago an RC model boat friend and I built a Sealink ferry out o Lego. It was about 5 ft long and weighed a TON, but even then we had to allow the bottom couple o decks to flood so it floated on the correct waterline. BR were so cuffed with it that they had in their window in the HQ at Euston or some time, but I've no idea what happene3d to it eventually.
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! :)

Regards
Kit

I remember going up there to buy 6 kits in one go and sending most of them overseas to those who otherwise would have had to wait months.
