QuoteIt's done! And I'm pretty happy with the result considering I nearly died in the middle. Pictures tomorrow if it's not raining.
Sweet! B)  Looking forward to the photos. I hope you are mending okay. :)

Sorry Eddie, I had to have more surgery on my back. I'll get it photographed and in a box on an MD-11F across the Atlantic to you this week!

I just need to figure out how to pack it now! I'm thinking I will build a wooden crate that fits exactly inside the cardboard box.

This project has come full circle! I received the Scrambler fighter today. Unfortunately, it was damaged quite a bit. :(  I will get it back together, but some of the paint has chipped in places where parts broke off. Photos later.

My only real gripe is that Simon's paint work is a little dinged up. As a matter of fact, I'm going to be able to add a few things to it to liven it up a bit. ;)  ^_^ Plus, it's a bit of a time capsule to see how much my modeling ability has improved in a year. Either way, it will still have it's prime spot on my shelf and I will be able to brag that it was assembled in 3 countries by two other people who I consider top notch modelers  B) Can't ask for more than that! :)

Man, that sucks, I'm sorry Eddie. I thought the wooden crate I built was going to be enough but obviously not.

Was the box crushed? Somebody must have driven a truck over it, because I made it tough...

Don't worry about it! It will all work out. :cheers:

They must have dropped in one or more of the corners, because the box was distorted and that's how the model came loose inside the box.

It will debut soon! B)

Just getting caught up on this whole thread.

1. How are you doing now, Simon?

2. Eddie, have you been seizure-free so far?

3. We demand before and after pics of the repair process!

This has been quite the build so far.  In an ironic way, it is only fitting that the Master of Kitbashing ™ is once again challenged to bring it full circle back into shape!
