Awesome! Nice work on the paint pattern. Not something I would have thought of but it's looking good.

Thanks gents  ;D  ;D
Ken it's looking the part for now ...once some painting takes place and some dry brushing here and there it should look OK 👍.
Still gotta paint the hell out of the cockpit 😆
I keep forgetting that part  :banghead:

OMFG, that is just awesome  :wub:  :wub:  :wub:
I very rarely get the feeling of genuine awe nowadays but I just came across this build and I think a bit of pee just escaped!
Phil, I sincerely hope you finish this one as it just screams "I need to be real" in my books. If this was black, it could easily pass as a 21st century Firefox.

I don't have enough superlatives in my vocabulary to adequately describe how I feel about this project and I am not someone to blow sunshine up anyone's butt at the best of times.
I genuinely can't wait to see this one finished.  :wub:  :wub:  :wub:  :wub:  :wub:  :wub:  :wub:  :wub:  :wub:  :wub:  :wub:  :wub:  :wub:  :wub:  :wub:  :wub:  :wub:  :wub:  :wub:  :wub:

Yes, Phill! Some progress on this would be appreciated!  :angry:
