At first I didn't like the high gloss, but after looking at a few minutes I really like it! It has sortof a "curated" museum look to the model, that's really cool. Nice job! Keep it coming!

As soon as I Get my Christmas packages From Rons sister shirle I will start on some back to back builds Looks like I will not live loing enough to finish them all I am in the dark on whats coming my way Shirle quoted there is 200lbs of card kits I had no Idea Ron had that many Rons sister Shirle chuckled over the phone and said Ron is a hoarder when it comes to models I thought I was good,, but like my late father said to me when I was a young boy there is always someone else out there is better then you I agree..


Okay Fellas back to the finish up build of the skytrain I completed the right engine nacelle assembly and letting it dry over night tomorrow I will give it a final burnishing and give it a coat of clear Areo gloss dope. The nacelles are straight forward nothing but formers and skins
