Nicholas, when your finished, post some pics of the builds over on the Aircraft Forum. This thread is pretty much dead, but would love to see the models.

well, even tho' the end date of this GB is long past,
it's nice 2 see that i'm not the only straggler. LOL !
i finally decided it was OK 2 let the project take the time it needed
rather than trying 2 rush & get it done by the deadline ...
tige, nicholas & feldgrau: hey, if we finish before 2005,
it'll still b a 60th anniversary project ! Big Smile [:D]

You got that right Frosty. I recently had my modeling time cut in half since my son moved down with me. He gets my time from the time I walk in the door to the time he goes to bed. Goodthing is that he loves building models so I get to model with him. We are working on The battleship Arizona so I will probably be finishing just before new years HEHE.

Well gang I am one last weathering and one light dusting away from posting and finishing. Ever since I put the camo on my son has been following intently on this build geuss he is starting to see The ways of the darkside. The darkside is strong in this one.

Well Its finished woth the exceptoin of some mud, dirt and some other odds and ends hope it passes for the group badge. Even if it did take me beyond the build finish date. It was deffinately worth the build tho.
