      Just been catching up in this .
      Great paint job and all the baggage is really going to set things off.

        Hi Greg
        I have missed a lot of this - sorry. Just had a most enjoyable catch up. Really top quality work. Love the paint job. Colour variation and chipping is excellent. Lenses are most effective. Baggage always looks good and is worth putting on.
        Jim
        Glad you're settled after the move. Being happy now makes all the stress worth while and your own modelling space is the icing on the cake :thumb2:

                  Greg,
                  Finally caught up with you again, and as usual the build and details are to behold, yet another masterpiece on the way.
                  Mike.

                              Greg, as Paul E would say, "crap in the back " you have managed to have crap all over.:thumb2::thumb2::thumb2::thumb2::thumb2:
                              Looks great.
                              Thanks for the bit of history, makes it far more interesting on a build like this
