            I understand where your coming from but it was a great Camo job. Bring on the next Rick H. Subject to build

              Landing gear and ordnance in place......need to add a couple of fragile details and paint them. After that we are looking at a gloss coat where the decals will sit.........and the torture never stops :tongue-out3: I borrowed one of Pete's helpers to keep this build moving along.Click image for larger version

                  I’m glad you didn’t bin it. Such beautiful Camo job on this Rick. I would hate to see it go. Looks great

                          Thanks Guys, I'm happy to hear that you are enjoying this little "beast"........Kevin is there with his HEAT Gun just in case things don't go well. I've just hit it with a gloss coat so will get decals on it later today or tomorrow. :thumb2:

                            That is really cool Rick. Armaments looking good and I too am glad you didn't bin it. I do have a question though.....In which store in Haight Ashbury did you buy the masks for it in 1967???.............Bring it on home now Buddy!!!

                            Peace um, Prost

                                Looking superb there Rick,I love it!!
                                Just a thought though.....That Dark Green behind the Cockpit,in the last pic,looks VERY much like a Gecko`s "Paw" print!!:tears-of-joy: ....
                                ... I do love my Lizards:nerd:
                                Excellent build though Buddy... Cracking work:thumb2:
