For a build that has really tested your patience and resolve, you've fought every step of the way with ill fitting parts and alignment issues, that aside you've certainly wrestled her into shape and turned her into a very commendable build, she's looks gorgeous all lit up,

now grab a brew with a biscuit or two and sit back and enjoy this beauty you've created...
well done mate...well done indeed.. :thumb2: :thumb2: :thumb2: :thumb2: :thumb2: :thumb2: :thumb2: :thumb2: :thumb2: :thumb2: :thumb2:

Chris that's really looking very good indeed and that's just the kit!! The lights on top really do add to the effect, especially in the dark.

Very well done indeed!

HI Steve yes im pleased at how she turned out an end i dint think would happen as i was very lucky at the build end as them main skull an cross bones decal stayed whole an it was mainly just that yellow an black cockpit stripe that played up by splintering but again i was lucky by havin the right colour paints to hand to just touch up so all in all i was just lucky that my efforts paid off with jens help but this is a build i would not want to do again but i learnt a lot of how to plastic model in the 7 months build
CHEERS for lookin in an your nice comments

Well Chris, I have to say that you have really hit the ball out of the park with this one.

My apologies Chris, I really thought I'd left a comment - that'll teach me for reading posts on my kindle just before bed lol!

Excellent work sir, my hats off to you. A challenging build but you definitely bested it. The lighting looks superb! (And an entertaining build thread). :thumb2: :thumb2: :thumb2:
