Still a few little bits of trim/paint to do...... |

This is looking really good! Nice to see this model take shape from ground up! |

Nice paint lines, very sharp. |

It's not a perfect model guys! But.... it is completely hand made, using only mini saws, modeling knife, and various abrasives (sandpaper/ wet-n-dry etc). Only the wheels and decals where not fabricated by me It was also made to my own drawn plans. I would do several things differently if I did another of this aircraft. |

the Q6 you've made is a wonderful rendition, Bob - I always tell folks I'm going for progress, not perfection. If it looks like my work is improving, I'm happy. FWIW I like the prop spinners and the interior cabin work you did on this. |

The only reason it isn't perfect is that you, like the rest of us, know where the imperfections are in our models. Great job. |

Thank you all for your kind words - Don't laugh, but I am just starting to put together a 1/32 scale Airfix plastic kit. The Fairy Swordfish. A change is as good as a rest they say! |

I love that paint scheme, Bob. And you drew the plans? That's brilliant (as you Brits are fond of saying). By all means, use what you've learned and treat us to another beautiful model. Happy Thanksgiving all! |
