Excellent work. Very brave to do that finish.

A great build Barry and very nicely presented in that display case - hopefully M'lud was pleased with it :grin:

He was, Shaun. My biggest fear was that he was going to ask me to do a T-28 next. So far, he has not.

Beautiful as always! Your metallic finishes never cease to impress me.

I also get a kick out of the fact that a 1950s mold did a better job with the intake shape,than a high tech hobby boss kit from the twenty-first century :)

Are you sure it´s a mold from the 50ies? even without the enhancements you did, that would surprise me :shock:

According to Scalemates, this kit was originally issued by Hawk in 1958.
