I like it, the scheme is shining like the sun! :)

I think that modeling is a subtle mix of zen philosophy and absolute crazyness - but in my case I would not dare to specify the respective percentage of each......

Really a 'Brilliant' finish & a top build.

If mine turns out half as good I will be very happy. :lol:

Thanks everyone for all the positive contributions on my first GB!

Just found out from OT's thread that the ailerons should've been silver - damn the Airfix painting guide that told me they were grey. It'll teach me to do my research a bit more thoroughly next time :oops:

Thanks, once again :grin:
Regards,

Miss-Stang
