        I'm joining the comments above: a hotly contested build with a very good result. Whoever lasts wins. :thumb2:

            Thanks Andrew.....even though it's 1-87 scale I think it's pretty big compared to the size of the stuff I normally work on. At 9X13 (inches not centipedes) it makes a pretty big foot print.

                        Thanks Lee I hadn't expected to get it this far, truth to tell, and in retrospect I can now see where I really could have done better. I have one more of these in the stash.....it's a bomber version so maybe different tooling. No matter what they could do different it would be an improvement, I'm sure! Glad you like it! :thumb2:

Thanks to all who supported my effort with this PIG model and I did enjoy the GB! Thanks to Dave (Gern) for hosting it. :thumb2: [ATTACH=CONFIG]n1197670[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]n1197671[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]n1197672[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]n1197673[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]n1197674[/ATTACH]
