Now that I like Alan. Great job and when you have added your weathering it will just compliment a very nice build.

Cheers mate I have done the weathering now but I've got some bits to put on it and I want to show it in natural light due to me weathering it with gun metal

The big brother looks superb Alan.

Let's see your final touch

AAAAAwwwww mate that looks superb, i want one to add to my viper collection. Dont you think though that the original shape viper is still the best, excellent build Alan, if you dont mind a suggestion when you weather wash in all those panel lines. what a cracker.

I do think it's a better shape bigger as well as you will see in the completed thread I will be posting in about 10 minutes

One option that Alan didn't chose (but it was his choice and seems to be working OK) is that the kit builds nicely in sections for easier painting - engine exhausts, rear fuselage, intake section and nose/cockpit. Eliminates some awkward masking. and makes lighting easier.

For those of you concerned about the pilot, check out the ones available at Starship Modeler.
