            Wow I blinked and it’s almost done. Great work I’ve been thinking of having a Missle, Rocket and Artillery GB this fall October-December maybe you will have the urge to build another.

                Cheers chaps :smiling4: It was a very simple straightforward build and went together nicely. Hopefully the paint will be as simple and straightforward :thinking:

                  I was going to suggest a GB this week now that you have some practice you can build one in the GB I just posted lol. If you want of course.

                      That's a very quick and very neat build Si. Much smaller than I imagined. Should paint up well.

                            Very nice neat build Si.
                            Strength isn't about what you can do, rather it's about overcoming what you thought you couldn't do.

                              Hello,
                              your model looks great. I wanted to build it at some point, so I'm excited to see how it goes.
                              Best regards,
                              Andi

                              PS: I'm surprised about the closed windows. Dragon simply saved on the interior and the transparent parts!
