Finished the 500 and must say it was a pleasant kit with no major fit issues!

The build can be seen here

Lovely work on that paint Trey. A sharp looking model, top stuff as always. And a nice little distraction from the complicated interior of your Fortress I'll bet.

[Guest]

Thanks Joe appreciate the kind words and yes it is a much needed break from that interior!

A very nice sharp and tidy build Trey ( a bit of a copout doing the special ops no DECALS :laughing: only kidding Trey )

[Guest]

That's turned out really nice and tidy, certainly looks the part for special ops.

I'm really impressed with the clean, crisp lines on the canopy, your masking is spot on !!.

5* from me.

Very Trey.

Very nice build, got me thinking about building one now but perhaps in the TC colours from Magnum PI

You wouldn't need to suffer from claustrophobia to fit into that cockpit Trey, nice masking job by the way; excellent work as always add my 5 Star. Cheers Derek

Nice and tidy Trey. I would think the only thing that could of made the special ops bird more sinister, would of been dark glass...

Top job trey! Looks great in the black scheme, like adrian , I remember the guy in Magnum P.I. having one of these ,if only because he had the same initials as me ! cheers tony
