Gaaaaaaaaaaah!!! I don't see a thing wrong with that build Gil! Blown.....away.......

Well.......that'll show ya how much I know about these birds. Still..........some stellar work going on with this one.

First off, this is one good looking build Bill. Your natural metal finish work is looking pretty darn good as well as the details that you've picked out in this small scale build. Out of curiosity...what did you correct on the speed brakes? Killer build and excellent result.

I didn't think about that but you're right Gil. Still.........good show man.

Like Mark, I've never even heard of this aircraft before and I've also never built a vacu-form kit. Your take on this bird is most certainly a good one and I'm sure it looks just great sitting in your display area.

Buddy.......if that kit has any warts in it......you sure seemed to have ironed out the vast majority of them because I sure can't see any in the finished product. Gifts like this are just priceless to the recipient, in this case to your pastor, and is a true joy to give away. I've done this a couple of times with an old Revell 1/48 Corsair that I gave to an old friend of mine and then an AMT '59 El Camino that I gave to my son's friend as a Christmas present. You done good on this one @ghodges Gil.

Man.......the fact that absolutely no one has commented on this fabulouso build is just mind blowing. The work that you put into the paint job alone on this build is award winning and then there's the detail that you brought to the table with the interior. I'm not a big fan of the decals for seat belts but it's still a well-built, painted up and weathered cockpit Gil. Superb work old friend.

I hadn't seen this one as of yet Jean. That's some exceptional detail in that scale bud. WOW!!!!!!!!!!!

Bumpin this one back up top for my buddy Gary.

Very well done Jmarc.

I appreciate that Gil. He was a well known member on this forum here as well for years. Great guy and will indeed be missed.

All, I learned that a few days ago Gary Davis has passed away. One of the forum members on another forum was tied closely with Gary and announced it on the forum. It was a sudden ordeal as just 12 hours prior he had posted on the forum. Gary was a strong dirt track car enthusiast who possessed a grand ability for replicating these cars and has been a good friend of mine not only on this forum but in communities abroad. Aside from his modeling skillset, was also a very encouraging and pleasant person to interact with on the modeling forums and I consider myself blessed to have known him. I thought everybody who knew Gary here should know of his passing. He will definitely be missed. His latestcompleted build just a couple of weeks ago was the Marty Robbins '34 Ford Modified that he finished in a Group Build that I was running elsewhere. Truly a gifted and talented modeler and a great friend of mine for the last 10 years.

I wondered who that belonged to. Congratulations on such a great win....and at the NATS too. That right there ............was a well deserved win Alex.

I've seen this one a few times at the Hobby Shop. Progress is looking good Mark.

PM sent Mark.
