Construction has been going slowly because of real world
responsibilities. Angry [:(!]

Phil,
What scale are you making it in? I like the cockpit so far.

I dont think I deserve that honor... Blush [:I]

Well, if you want to get anywhere, you need a LOT of reference material. I also draw a LOT of PICS to visualise what I'm doing... Planning is important before doing anything. I usually take 2 months of R&D before I start building. In that time I plan, play, draw and think . I also test my materials, paints and everything. After that I've usually got a good idea what I'm doing...
