Soooo...

I was kind of tipping along doing the small jobs.. decals, canopy, rads etc.. with a view to getting some nice progress shots to show y'all.. then I thought, well, I've done that, maybe some weathering and add the MGs.. and then..

Well, it's done

Canopy up and cowling off..

With the cowling back on (would someone please think of the children!)

(and yes, I've noticed some bits to touch up...)

So I guess that's it.. a very enjoyable build from start to finish, and done in great company..

Now I'm free to dedicate all my time to heckling Shaun...

Well done Mike, a great finish. Haven't you got some bits to touch up and a load of other GB's on the go to finish? :ha:

A very nice finish there Mike, and plenty of time left in the month for another one, or even two!

I do, I do.. within touching distance of another GB kit finish as we speak.. which leaves two more after that..

and yet.. there is a siren song coming from the Stash "Build Meee.. Buiiiillld Meeeee!"

Must..resist....

It's great that you've got into it Mike, there's no way I'm going to attempt to keep up with your output!

I think you win the "Quality" over "Quantity" argument, though...
