Thank you Wayne. That's high praise from you. I've got about 4 kits laying round in the "stash". All 1/35, a Hornisse, a Maus, an M48, and the good old M113 Vietnam era. Been thinking seriously about that 1/35 Maus with a 150mm KwK 44.
With the Model craft/ Occidental Texan, it helps to have the Monogram AT-6 instructions plus being familiar with the aircraft. Don't forget to shim up the vertical stabilizer with 40 thousandths plastic as that's how short that part of the mold is. I will have to post pics of that before I paint mine.
Due to some simple stupidity not paying attention....one wrongly attached propshaft(?) equals snap the f....bas....part in two places, while trying to save the situation....should get a Nobelprice for that....anyhoo, candle and some sprue and some more colourful and imaginative expressions....and a pile of failed attempts....
