And it's a bloody tail sitter :oops:

Need to use a lot more gloss as the finish is nowhere near as good as I'd hoped due to a slight incident with dust, an open window and freshly applied varnish. Never happened before. :shock:

Looks blooming marvelous. Great build.

I stuck a pin into the fuselage just behind the rear wing hence no shots from that angle ;-)
