Not the best light for photography, but she's almost done.



Just need to tighten up the antenna wires. Port side # decal shattered when I tried to place it on, so maybe the ground crew just painted over it in their haste...  :lol:



The rockets are in place.



Back story is done, final post is imminent. Decals were crap, and I had a paint disaster when I tried to fix the red dot (which broke up on placement) on the starboard underside roundel. For some reason the paint bled across onto the white. Might try to fix it, or might just not photograph it. Decisions, decisions...

Do the colours of the rockets signify anything ?
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Right I shall pay attention as I'm thinking of some "different" armament for a current BoB period project which is based on some real world tests.

I want to see it all properly so photos now (avoiding the dodgy decal), fix later.

- 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.

Almost had a screaming fit today when I went to add a few bits to the back story. Couldn't find it. Ran a search for the title. Nothing. Ran a search for a keyword in it, nothing.

Cold sweats, mixed with rage.

Got called out on a run, got back home a few hours later and tried again.

Success. Crisis averted. Must have been something screwy in the computer, the previous times the search never even ended with a 'File not found', it just kept going. This time it was located within seconds.  :unsure:

Might have this all wrapped up very soon.
