Sorry I missed this turkey.  Beautiful work Hoss.  Your weathering is vastly improving as well.  I'm going to do Tex Hill's machine eventually with this kit.

Thanks LD. I'm slowly building the courage to be a bit more aggressive with the weathering. This was a nice build overall and it came out better than I expected. The nose build was a little funky and the trailing edges and doors are pretty thick. But it looks the part in the end.

Hoss, have you read God is My Copilot?  If not, I'll bet you'll it.
