Figured I'd just start a new thread for this...rather than spending the time editing out the old one...due to the P/B debacle. I still had some pics on my phone, and uploaded what I had to Flickr.
A few pics to get caught up to where I had left off...
I mixed up a yellowish-tan as a base for the Uschi "wood" decals...
So, that's where I had left off.
Since then, I threw some paint at it...
After my vacation (Ireland was AWESOME!!!), and looking at this again, I was not happy with the lighter green, so I remasked and slung a little more paint...got the decals on as well.
...and that's where she sits right now.
Good lord that's gorgeous just as it sits!
This is remarkable Fermis. Truly remarkable.

Oh yeah, that's another one you're knocking right outta the park Femis!

Just when I've got to the point where I think to myself, "Alright. Fermis has can longer wow me", it's BOOM, and here you are blind siding us with yet another eye popping stunner. Magnificent work my friend.

Wow that is some serious eye candy! The paint work is awesome!

Fermis, I'm quite jealous. That's a beautiful thing you have there. And a beautiful kit too. Maybe one day I'll get to play with one. What made you decide to split it up as you have?

I'd love to see a short video of your painting technique. Maybe you could set up a camera some day just behind your paint booth (or wherever you paint) and grace us with an airbrushing tutorial.
Phenomenal work!

I appreciate the compliments....but "maybe" is probably about as far as that idea will go! It would likely be painfully boring! I do believe that there are already a few videos out there on youtube...search "Black basing".
I can't believe this thing has dragged on as long as it has, but I am nearing the end. All that's left is attaching the remaining fiddly bits, all the bigger ones are painted/decaled and ready to go...aside from that, still gotta do the canopy.
As she sits now...
That's an amazing build, super nice work.

Final touches done!!!
Always love your work but that one... WOW... she belongs in a museum!
Beautiful work fermis. I love how you did the cut outs to show the frame work. I built the 1/48 version a year ago and had a blast doing so.

I think you set the bar too high, and now it's broken. Lol
outstanding!
this is the gold standard and it's too bad you're not keeping it. This would win a lot of trophies for sure!
If I were the recipient I would be more than happy!!
just simply out-freakin-standing, Fermis!
Man oh man, that is just beautiful.
Outstanding workmanship.
