            Wow Greg,, I've been watching this from the sidelines and wondering why all the detail underneath - NOW it makes sense!
            totally awesome and epic, as are all your projects.
            Keep the faith!

              Fab stuff Greg. I’m sure you are in top of this, but out of interest, is it going to be hard to get the paint into all those nooks and crannies?

                Thanks Tim Indeed painting will be complicated..so every part will be painted separetly...and this will create a different color modulation of navy greys and blues that l hope will fit all together with the weathering...hope it make sense what l said..

                    Makes Absolute sense Greg. This is probably the best build on here at the moment, and that’s up against some stellar opposition :thumb2:
