The Wooksta!

Varnished!

Just the tail wheel to finish painting and the canopy unmasked before getting the bits on.

Very close to some sort of finish line now.

Looking forward to seeing the beast in all her glory.

Took the canopy masking off yesterday. Nearly had to chisel through the paint.

Have to say I'm unhappy with the decals in places. I can foresee a partial strip and re decal.  Still, it'll be finished, photographed and have it's Telford debut before that.

Going to be a fair number of captured Luftwaffe models at Telford............
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! :)

If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

Nothing more damaging enroute other than a popped wheel (not glued anyway) and the central engine falling off. Just a push fit back in place. 

And here she is, sitting on the SIG stand.
