This Beagle is a DOG! ***Finished***

Thanks for the kind words guys.

I am sure this one would have been canned or become a bench queen without this group build to push me forward. Thats why I like them.

Definitely worth the effort O_T - you're braver than me with the NMF, and it looks really good on that base next to the MiG

Cheers mate. I definately prefer the Trumpeter kit. If I ever build another one - and that's a big if right now, I would go for that kit and do the camoflaged target tug like this:

Nice effort and it may have fought you all the way but I reckon you won unanimously on points...no knockout though but your the one still standing and no cut lips or blackeyes either!

I hope my Beagle turns out as good when I get round to it..I've got the same kit so ta lots for the insight into building it

My only criticism is the antenna cable does look rather too thick for that scale but who cares you won the fight :)

I still like the East German markings too....good call imho...looks different enough and makes a change from red stars and the like!
