Well, a little bit of cursing, and a few rolls of tape later:

[noxioux]

Wow.  Just getting that thing out of the mummy wrap will be a bugger.  I'm looking at that pic and thinking, rubber bands. . . rubber bands. . .

I'm also curious about how you are going to paint the feathers.  I could see doing it by hand, before trying to cut masks, etc. . . for airbrushing.  Come on, enquiring minds want to know!

Anyway, it's already looking good.  I'm looking forward to seeing 'er all done!

[BlackOps]

Somebody done gone an went plum LOCO!  I can't believe your doing it and it looks damned good so far!

LOL...the rubber bands are underneath the tape!!!  This sucker is hard to squeeze together!  It seems to be setting up well...
 the painting will all be done by hand, in very thin washes...should be something!

Somebody needs more medication!  Beware of men in white coats!

Once you achieve this I suppose your next project will be one of those digitized camo jobs? B)  

[Julhelm]

Easiest way to make a digi-pattern job:

Fractal-generate 2 or 3 images depending on # of colours, cut out the square dots - use as masks.

[cthulhu77]

Well, the mummification came out well...almost no seams at all !!!

Saying you're crazy is a bit of an uderstatement I guess  

But you're doing a great job, both on the in- and the outside.

I wish I could build/paint/cement half as good as that

Don't give me too much credit on this one...the paint job will be a bugger, but this kit didn't win awards in design for nothing...it really does go together unbelievably well, the fit between components is mind-boggling!!!

[noxioux]

Looks like it was well worth all that tape.  It doesn't look like there will be much to fill on that top seam at all.  What are you using for cement, just out of curiosity (not to hijack or anything).

[AeroplaneDriver]

Once again Greg, you amaze me with the kind of projects you take on.  I cant imagine attempting half the stuff you produce.

Cat wait to see her on the nest!

glad you all like it so far!
       the preferred cement for me is usually CA glue, but in this case, since I had to take so long to fit in different assemblies, I used that old green tube of glue for the fuselage halves, Testors !

on the nest!

I guess that phrase doesn't have the same meaning in Canada as it does in Britain....  

BTW, not only is Gregs model another example of what an awesome modeller he is, but he builds so damn fast!!!
