    To tell the truth, when I put the model on the shelf I realized I forgot the aerial (the hole on the tail is clearly visible)... after some trials (CA cures rapidly only when you don't really need it and viceversa... :rolling: ) I managed to have a decent one on, but I'll wait until tomorrow before trimming it to the required length.

        Thank you. It was a paint scheme truly outside my comfort zone. I'm satisfied but next time I'll be more daring with tones and shades.

                Totally splendid Andrea. That is a great shade of 'super' dark grey / black.

                    Thank you very much for the kind comments. It could have been better (the strict self-evaluator in me strikes back :face-with-head-bandage, but I agree that it catches the eye, especially under the sun.
                    The only risk of a photo session in front of the garage is that with the temperatures we have in these days (above 31 °C) and being a black surface, there's the risk to melt or de-glue something!

                          Pretty sure, Andy: how could you explain my reward otherwise?

                          They were clearly under the effects of some of Matron's attentions.:face-with-thermometer:
