        Yeah Lee......He's been playing with that "Buzz" Box (arc welder) all day, I'm surprised he hasn't set fire to the whole shebang over there at Race Towers. Better call Matron to have a look at him. :thinking:

              So here's the latest, I have used the removed plug to fabricate the upper cargo door as the back side will be visible from the other side of this bird....the bottom door will be scratched later from strip styrene as it won't be visible from the bottom unless you pick this thing up....going on a base so who cares. finally got the scratched exhaust ring and stacks located and the prop and cowl on Royal PITA.....sorta like holding down an Octopus while administering an Enema!! :tongue-out3: :rolling: Click image for larger version

                Quite safe re the fire at the moment guys, I've just had my meds courtesy of Matron .
                Rick think something to judge the scale you work with would be nice , as the detail is remarkable .

                        I suppose there's no help for me....I have had this affliction since my early "Teen" years. :face-with-head-bandage: :money-face:

                          Rick,
                          Very nice work mate, the exhaust looks excellent.

                            Really fine progress Rick. I said earlier that it would be very fiddly. Looking at your improvements I rest my case.

                              Thanks for hanging with me on this guys.........I have thought from the beginning that this would be a test of my abilities, I had no idea that my sanity would come into play......well, the obvious has now been confirmed, I'm crazy about the small details. :tongue-out3: :thumb2:

                                Excellent scratchery on this one Rick. You are lifting it several levels above the kit standard. Nice to see the Sanity Claus coming into play as well. Just remember Chico’s reply…..
