| And this is, what, like ur 3rd!!?? damn, fine looking bird!!! And in case anybody noticed and gets the wrong idea, I believe that that is a shadow across the fuselage in pic #5 caused by the antenna wire and not the fuselage halves glued cause I know Dan sanded that area!! Had me going for a sec!

| Nice work Les!! That is one big ass carpet because it looks scaled to 1/72 on it. I love the dirt (oil spill?) on the tank and all the grime under the engine. Seems you took after me with the fly-by shot at the end, the almighty finger joint prevails!  |

| Thanks guys... The model is 1/48th scale Maglar, and it is oil that has spilled onto the tank..... I was trying to figure out how to show the bottom detail and put it up into the sky.... It worked....
