As per my recent post in the Chat Thread, be advised that the GB will remain open for an extra 24 hours. Hope this helps.

Re: Kit's Firebrand
As previously said, all the fan blades were damaged as they are wafer thin, so these had to be replaced
Bit blurry, but this is the tool I used to cut the blades from 10 thou plastic
Since these were taken, thanks to the extension granted by Martin, the Firebrand is done. Pics up after I've eaten

Re: Kit's Firebrand
Thanks Marky, yep I really put my glasses to the test with that
Anyway, all fed and wined now (hic) so here's the pics
Can't recommend this kit highly enough. I'm sure in the hands of some of you guys it would be a real show-stopper. Thanks again to Martin for the extension.
Thanks for looking

Re: Kit's Firebrand **FINISHED**
It makes for an impressive beast and an inspiration to get my Magna refurb completed.

Its not just how good your painting is, its how good the touch-ups are too.

Way to bring it home !! That's a super model and I'm happy the flaps played nice for the final photos.

That's turned out really good. Well done.
