Sounds of silence *** Finished***

Any subject, any scale, just so long as it fits within the outer diameter of a CD (or DVD, or BlueRay). And some of those famous UAMF extra ninja brownie bonus points if you can match the CD/DVD with the subject of the build.

Cheers guys.

It's about finished I just need to give the canopy frames another coat of yellow and clean up the edges and it's finished.

I have really enjoyed this stress free build.

If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing

Finished at last.

I feel after viewing all the other threads I feel I have been lazy just pinning the glider to such a simple base, but I'm happy with the final effect.

That's just excellent Splash, great workmanship and a creative way around the CD limits that has inspired others.
You have nothing to be ashamed of regarding the simplicity of the base - it reflects the simplicity of the glider and makes a wonderful point about the joy of flight ....
Well Done !!
