Well, this is one of the most gorgeous aircraft models I've ever seen. I had no interest in the subject before, but after seeing this I want one (though there's no way I can do it justice like you have).

Fantastic, fantastic job!

Martin, wonderful build.  This guy turned out amazing. For just starting out, you have a real nice grip on the important parts of painting and weathering.  Nicely done!  =]

UKguyInUSA-This is an incredible build.  The paint job and finish are outstanding.  Possibly one of the best 1/32 scale AR196 builds I have seen.  Your photography is top-notch too!

That is an outstanding build there, and the pics of her are great too. Looks like I'm going to need to buy one of those before they're gone.

Builds like this make me want to start WW2 era aircraft and leave the jets alone for a while, it's brilliant!
