    Couldn't agree more Aaron. Great work Glenn.

    Spectacular Glenn, with both 109's running neck and neck, I knew you'd make it

    Superb job Glenn, especially with that tricky cammo pattern.

    This by far out of the three builds takes the cake Sir.

    but I might add Glenn though in the future to maybe tone down staining for the gunports.I find myself looking at them when it should be the whole model less suttle;different color or dirty up the background more?Not trying to be to critical just an ob.Kevin Cheers

    The staining did turn out a little heavier than I had intended. In the past the pastels seemed to fade by a factor of 50% when I sealed them with Dullcoat so this time I applied them a little heavier so naturally they didn't fade. Oh well I'll just say that at the height of the battle the mechanics were to busy patching holes and keeping them flying than cleaning them up.
