| Thank you Ray and Robert. Yes, it's Callie's work. Now if I don't screw up the right side it's all good. If I do, You'll only see this side. |

| Thanks, Heywooood. Finished the right side today. Waiting on one more decal and then a final gloss clear coat, canopy and missles. Then I get to draw a deep breath. |

| Very nice Don. I guess a scale model carrier deck to mount it on would be a bit much? |

| Thanks, Julnick. That's a good site. I had thought about the acrylic rod in the exhausts, but that really explains it. I want to show it of for a while before relegating it to patrolling the upstairs. Biplane Guy, thanks, but the wife said "No". We'd have to add 9 1/2 feet to the house for 1/24 scale. :) |
