The man is a hero and deserves a medal for perseverance.

Is he going to make it? Can we stand down the SAR?

This wee sleekit beastie is STILL fighting me! Just went to put on the 2 painted Mk 84s ....and they've gone AWOL....along with the wee front nosewheel door and TRAM plook thing :evil:

Painting up new bombs and making a wee door from a number tab from the sprue and a TRAM bubble from sprue.

That's worrying, what would a carpet monster want with two Mk84's a nose wheel door and a TRAM plook thing? :razz: :razz: :razz:

Some nefarious plot, no doubt!
I'm beginning to suspect that this kit is the flip side of James Nesbitts escapes in 'Lucky Man' ! :???:

The whole thing turned out well (eventually :lol: ). Nice one and extra points for perseverance in the face of modelling adversity.
