If the crappy Wi-Fi could finish loading, I could say that's a beautiful job. I'll go with life experience and assume it's a totally Bitchin' job.

As anticipated, a for sure showpiece. Very nicely finished and detailed. Yet another reference build!

 

[SaparotRob]

With all above.

Though its too late now, I had a friend pick up a bottle of Tamiya Satin Coat and redid the tops of wings and elevators on the model. Its still a bit wet but there is a noticeable difference between the reflection of the 14 on the tail

Packing day, camp bus in 4hrs. When I get back I'll finish off here for self satisfaction. Have a good week gentlemen and I'll see you in the Zombie build
