QuoteThanks!  Note to self:  do NOT leave clear tape over clear parts as masking for over one month...I just spent the last hour or so cleaning gunk off of the windows!!!!    What an idiot !

Looking stunning.  I never would have thought of that.  So distinct and startling!

As for the tape, I'm embarrassed to admit I've left Tamiya's yellow tape on cockpits for over a year (bows head in shame of procrastination) without any difficulty when I finally made some progress at a later date and finally removed said tape.

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I love stuff like this that pushes the envelope in terms of both concept and execution - bondo molding with Pringles lid, etc. Great work!

The beans are for refueling!  That's why the platypus exhausts are so wide.

   Flaperons are on, gear is on...next up, the Glamour missiles and then the radome...decals, etc :

Working on the diorama now...and just had to redo the backstory a bit so that the CV-122's would fit in, too cool to miss out on !  No pics at the moment, as I like the suspense (mine, as I don't even know how this is going to turn out!).

Oooooooh, she's a pretty one! :wub:
