Hi all,

I often have a glance at you all here, and finally...

I have not posted in here for a long time, 'cos there is a monster kit on my workbench that is progressing well. Though it is not a whif at all since I want it to depict a real current on duty aircraft, I could not resist the temptation...

Here come some pics of my Bone, that I have spent hours to improve, still a lot of work remaining, explaining why









... follow the link for the whole thing

Take care chaps !

Cheers,

Richard

Absolutely incredible work Richard! Your detail work is that of a master! I wish I had just a portion of your talent and skill! That weapons bay is museum quality!

Wow...is that ever sweet ! Great job. That bomb bay is stunning. Love those big bombs. Too cool.......

I'd like to grab one of those kits when hobby lobby has their 50% off sale. No real desire to build it, I just want it ! Probably stems from seeing those donkey-kicking mo-foes at airshows.........

CANADA KICKS arse !!!!

those bomb bays are unreal  :wub:  :wub:
