Cheers Shaun, I just ran the blades between my finger and thumb. They are quite thin and the plastic is soft enough.

That is a great finish James, and the added details are really inspiring. It's hard to believe it started out as bright red.

Congratulations James!
I built this when it first came out and remember it being a bit of a nightmare!
You've done both the kit and yourself justice - well done on a grand effort!

Brilliant James, it's all those little extra details that bring it to life. Really like what you've done with the rotor head.
