Er, oops! I got the finish date of my own group build wrong! I had in my head is was December 31st. Seems it was December 29th.

Anyway, I had an awful time with the end of this kit so I'm going to show it anyway. Group Build Leader's prerogative?! If it's against the rules John, just delete my pics from the gallery.

I'm glad to see the back of this. However, it's made me want to try it again as I know I can do better. So one of these days I'll do a Ferrari B-17 or something!

We'll look the other way over the date thing. :ha:
I know your not satisfied, are we ever, but it does show promise, and maybe with more time it would have come out more to your satisfaction.
Or then again, maybe not it's an AMT kit. And it's on my to do list! :roll:
I wish, that I knew what was doing!

End date? Pah! It's your GB, you can do what you like! And well done for getting it finished. And it looks the part!
I also fancy having another go at something like this. It was a super idea.

I would also love to have another go at this as it was great fun and well supported. Maybe we should have another later in the year.
