            Thanks Ron, I'm glad it has that effect, time to get the thermals out when viewing this.

              Ta Ian, the snow effect works great on clear resin to give that ice look, but it is slightly too course for this scale I think. All a learning curve. Glad you like it.

                Again, I couldn't leave alone and...I really promise...have finished it this time.

                Added some decals and distressed, added some epoxy to the wing edges and more around the cockpit area to show ice build up, also added a tree, just to break up the whiteness.

                    I know, I think it is hard for boarded or dio folk to be one hundred percent happy as the nature of the build dictates that other stuff could be added or messed with. A stand alone model is much more harder to fiddle with.
