Well,she's finally finished
It certainly won't win any awards but I have had a lot of fun building her and apart from the cruddy canopy,I am pretty happy with the end result.

Cheers,
Tony.

looks pretty good to me tony despite the canopy, though you'll need to post the regulation six pictures here's a link

Now common Tony mate, modesty don't become you. It's a fine looking machine and you're the winner cause you had fun. Love the camo too and Karl's right about the pics so I hope it's sunny for you tomorrow.

Good work Tony!

Looks good to me, and the canopy doesn't look that bad. I think with a bit more work, it'll polish out totally.

Nice work Tony. Didn't know that camouflage was extending to the underside of the fuselage. Interesting...

 

[Wayne Little]

Not a bad effort there Tony!

Tony, that camo is world class and a interesting look to it. Masking must of been a pain. Don't be your own worst critic, it's great!
