                        I take it all back. I think you should let him build a few so he can learn to appreciate what a real model is.

                        I only say because my own son went with me to my model club meeting and won the raffle and he won a B-17 (that's a big 4 engine bomber thingy) and .....and he wants to build it. I tried at first to convince him to sell it on Ebay and with a couple extra buck he could buy a nice Sherman, that didn't work.
                        So I finally accepted the fact that he's exploring his .....modeling preferences and that he may become a wingheadDisapprove [V] On the bright side he wants to build modelsSmile [:)]

                        It is I think an unpainted Leopard 2 A5 with the side armor extended outwards.

                        It's not silver but bare metal.

                        Not wings but side armors.


                        He-he-he. Sometimes I still wonder why I post my A/C model pics on my website. Ooops. LOL.
