Well, she's all done.  Some silvered decals, and a rough time making the wings move, but I'm satisfied with it.  I hope HOG would approve.  Miss his creativity here.  Tuck

Not only great model, but a fantastic paintjob as well! :bow:
Cheers,

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

Stunning  :wub: :wub:

Those first couple of photos have an almost "animal" look to them, as though the Germans have somehow tamed a mythical beast
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Beauty! :wub:
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.

OYG!

At first I thought, paint it red, Red Baron style, then I saw the Elvis swivel hip wings...  :o

I bow in humble surfdom to yout mastery.
Whatever.
