Hi all

All finished and good news, by setting the third cannister as forward as possible on the centreline it fits fine with plenty of ground clearance yay !

Here's the pics...........





















And the usual scale shots............





Happy with this one, even though the decals put up a fight its come out well.

All comments and criticisms gratefully accepted,  as always.

Nice work Mister Mog.  Nice work indeed!  At a stand-off distance the decal issues will not be an issue.  :smiley:

Hi guys

Just a little postscript to the build.

Remember those iffy decals I was trying to recover. Well here they are.



After pinning them in the window for the entirety of the build finally brought them to a state where they could be used, not that I'm going to use them yet. But satisfying sll the same  ;) ;D
