Well done, Fred! :thumbsup: (My 2nd choice) :thumbsup:

Also to Dave! :thumbsup: (For whom I voted - but not before considerable gnashing of teeth as I reduced 3 to 2 to 1) :thumbsup:

And, despite falling behind a bit, to Dizzy! :thumbsup: (Who was the 3rd of the 3 that I started with). :thumbsup:

And a big WELL DONE to everyone who participated because there wasn't a single poor build to be seen & it all came down to personal preferences in the end! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:



One vote! One measley little vote! Nasty, vicious, 'orrible, sadistic moderator! :angry:

Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

My glorious contraption netted zero votes because I only had one to spare and wasn't about to waste it on my own stuff.   :angry: ;D ;D ;D    Get a rope!!!!  ;D


Admittedly, while I think it's fantastic, it was a really low effort build.   :wacko:

Congratulations to the winner and to all the contestants, and a deserved thank you to the mods. :thumbsup:
Owing to the current financial difficulties, the light at the end of the tunnel will be turned off until further notice.

Congratulations Zenrat! Well done.

The single vote was indeed excruciating.

Yeah, yeah, I get the message.  :banghead: :banghead:

I promise I WON'T do the 'single vote' thing ever again, sorry.

No worries Kit it was likely appropriate given the lowish number of entries, my comment is as more that it was really tough to decide, as I wanted to tip my hat to several builds.

Thanks to all on the positive comments on my monster C-130, it was a fun build and glad it was well received.

Congratulations to all and especially to Zenrat!
A job well done by all. It really was hard to choose. With two or more votes it still would have been difficult to choose.
Hey at least you guys had entries! I never seem to get my occasional builds done in time........

Arrrrrrrrr, shiver me timbers.  Extra rum rations all round.
I'll have me cabin boy splice the mainbrace.

Well done everyone who entered and thanks to the mods.

You leave that cabin boy alone.... :o :o :o

Well done sir!  Magnificently and appropriately barmpot.... :thumbsup:

Thanks for all the nice words everyone.  I thoroughly enjoyed this build.  It was nice to do something different.
