We're not worthy! We're not worthy! (while on knees before computer monitor, raising hands and bowing in total supplication)
Seriously, that's a IPMS Nationals best-in-class, if not best-in-show worthy build. I am in awe of your innovation, talent and skill. Just amazing work, Lancair!
Thanks Gents.

Painted the Recovery Compartment with Alclad Polished Aluminum. I didn't like the looks of it, so I repainted with Testors Non-Buffing Aluminum Metalizer. Covered the Parachute Containers with Nashua Tape Time to start adding the details
