Thank you, gents! :)
Has been one hell of an undertaking, Jeffry, but it's still going to be a "half-metre" model.
Mind you, I'm happy with that because I build for me.
I'll probably take her to the SA Plastic Model Expo in October & she probably won't score well but, like several of my other builds, I'll get to hear people talking about her & thinking, which is much more rewarding!
