  Trying to ramp up my creative side, decided to do a weekend build starting tonight, when S. takes off. Done by Monday morning. Film at eleven.

   I know this kit is going to require some nose weight, so I am making a mold for some lead:

Food poisoning on sat. night (dang that chicken!), but back at it again today. In the delirium, I decided to tweak the kit a bit more as well :)

I was expecting a "Hello Kitty" theme with that pink paint.

Shades of the Rutan 73 NGT with that cockpit! Very cool ... even without Hello Kitty waving back at us  ;D

O.k., so it took me more than two months to finish this one...lots of reality happening !  Anywho, it was a grand experiment in interior weight control !

Love it, Wise Old One! Odd how pink seems to perfectly compliment those Japanese markings!

You have an artist's eye my friend.

The only problem is he wants it back!
 ;D
Another outstanding Cthulhu model!

Well worth the wait!  :)  We'll just work out the total hours in two months and round down to 36  ;)
