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 .

Given me an idea for a troop carrier or cargo version  :thumbsup:

Hate is a strong word, but I really do not like this kit.  Fought me at every step, poor fit, my mistakes, and had a catastrophic fall off the bench during the paint stage.  If I finish this it will be out of spite rather than joy.  Not what the hobby should be, but it can happen.   

Figured a variation of the standard Shackleton scheme would be appropriate with more white on the upper surfaces.

I really dislike it when that sort of thing happens; it makes it worse when it's of your own making! :angry:  :banghead:

Still, it's coming along and looking good, Dave.  :thumbsup:

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