Got an F-19 Stealth on it's way from E-bay for my next project and picked up a Revell 80' Elco PT boat for this weekend. Looks like it's going to lose it's guns and get a coat of grey like the on in Black Lagoon. Should be fast and easy ( famous last words) to build.

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