      WELL Bri i know i havnt a A/B but when paint sprayin my tomcat with a rattle can its easy to miss bits so i always look the plane over at least 3 times lookin for missed paint areas an you with this A/B will have to mess it up again after cleaning JUST to paint tiny missed areas thats part of the reason i havnt got a A/B as with a rattle can all i have to do is turn up side down an quick spray to clear the nozzel so a lot easyier

        Your Eagle is coming along really nicely Brian. You’re making me want to dig out my kits!
        The cages and spine are a bit of a chore to put together but really look the biz when constructed.
        Looking great

        Cheers
        Paul

            Steve, It's just a form of helping hands I found with 6 arms rather than the normal 2-4

              This part is proving a real pig to get together so much so I thought I built it wrong but double checking its just a bad fit with little to no clearance for the diagonals.

                  Some pulling and bending managed to get them to look something like they should

                    Having second thoughts about the colour seems very white although it says the colour is diamond white hopefully will look better when weathered

                            Got to think about where I'm putting some lights before I go much further.
