Ralph. Thanks going to work on the prop. Next hope they go on as good as the aircraft

Rick. Thanks old buddy. I’m so anxious to get it done it will be my first 1/48 model aircraft
 
Very, very nice work Lee.

I was at the opening of the American Air Museum at Duxford in 1997 (working unfortunately), and two of these and a P51 flew over. The scream of those pistons is something I'll never forget

Peter. Thanks for stopping by and the complement I once had a P-51 do a flyby where I was unloading and finished with a barrel roll what a site.

John. The decals are the best I’ve ever used. They work well with Microset sol. I’m on the home stretch. Thanks for the complement

Lee, glad you've enjoyed this, well worth the effort to get it to this stage. :thumb2:
 
Looks good Lee. I got some detail shots of a scraper for your construction equipment build.
I think it's the same one, will pm them to you when I get back from the left coast.

Thanks but I’m not going forward with any more of the 1/87 build my eyes and hand can’t take it sorry but thanks for the legwork

John. Thank you for the complement it has been a really fun build. But now its almost complete
 
In that case Lee, I hope you won't mind if I build one myself. Just bought a 3D printed crawler so I might be picking your brain for scraper info. lol. Rick H.
