            Thanks Si, missed your post as I went directly to bed after the my last posting.

            The references gave influence to the amount of detail that I had to either execute or turn a blind eye. I'm happy I tried to fit them all. Small means less to put in...if it was a 1/350 scale version I would have more of a head ache accurising the detail . :smiling2:

            Cheers,
            Richard

                Thanks Fernando, ya he settled the payment just on the pictures alone before arrival which was a good surprise. Good thing I sent it off before the regrets of not keeping it set in. I am already missing it. :crying:

                Cheers,
                Richard

                    Thanks Steve and a very Happy New Year to you and family. Glad you enjoyed the build as much as I did building it. One of my fastest in terms of detailing...surprised me. It will be bonkers if there was an actual kit of this out there to save all the trouble. :smiling5:

                    Cheers,
                    Richard

                        Richard, sincerest apologies. I somehow missed the set of completed pictures. As I said many times before this really is a truly outstanding build and a testament to your skills as a modeller.

                        Very well done indeed.

                        ATB.

                          Thanks Toby and Andrew, no worries if you've just found the thread. For Toby there is the link to the WIP on the first page of this post if you want to see how it was built. The build was most challenging and interesting for me and I am quite satisfied by its outcome. :smiling4:

                          Cheers,
                          Richard
