Damn, you're a building machine , Chuck. Looks pretty good.
A little criticism, if you don't mind. You've got your lighting so the side facing your camera is in shadow. A little reflected light on the dark shadow side would really show off your very nice model.

Really nothing pithy to say.

Certainly no beauty but you've given it a chance for not being the ugliest plane ever. Great finish with the silver
Enjoyment over accuracy. That's my motto

Would you believe I tend to build 4-5 kits a month? During last week's snow event, I also finished the USS Delaware, one of the navy's second class of battleships built.johnsan wrote:Damn, you're a building machine , Chuck. Looks pretty good.

Thanks. However, I still have my heart on building a Blackburn Blackburn or Avro Bison one of these days.TobyC wrote:Certainly no beauty but you've given it a chance for not being the ugliest plane ever. Great finish with the silver
