Where are you in Northern (or as I like to call it Upstate) California. There are a few of us around.

I'm actually in the Bay Area, don't know if that counts in your book haha. You're much farther north, I take it!

Hey Luca! I guess you're probably aware that your work has gone viral all over the internet now, and practically everyone is gobsmacked, to say the least

I sure want to ask how did you designed all of those parts consistently (I'm assuming here you did not use any computer tools, please correct me if I'm wrong)

but, if, by chance, you did designed it through a computer, I'm wondering if you plan to share the model to everyone (free or with a fee, you do deserve to earn quite a bit for this effort )... hey, I'll buy a copy if you plan to sell the plans (I want to build your model in our airline's livery here too)

keep us posted dude! super job there!

Hey guys! My apologies for being an absolutely terrible "member" of this community! I guess I've had so much going on over the past several months that I've let this thread languish. Apologies :(

I'm still working to finish the model, hopefully by the summer. As for the plans, I'd love to share them, but it's going to take some work to get them into a share-able form. They tend to be a mess, and I often have trouble making sense of them as it is. Anyway, if anything gets released, I'll be sure to let you all know, but don't expect it to be easy... this model probably will end up having a good 30,000 pieces of paper. I don't think I'd want to try building this again!

I'm starting the wings now (the design process, that is), and I'm screen-capping everything, so if all goes well, I'll do some sort of timelapse. We shall see!

Thanks again everyone for the feedback! I will try to be better about posting but I tend to suck at this :/

WOW!!! Yipeee!!! Much thanks Luca!

no pressure buddy, take your time! all of us are very appreciative of what you already shared to everyone here!

much thanks again, you may like to learn that more and more modelers (even our fellows from IPMS), and even netizens are becoming fans of yours, as I'm seeing links to your work being shared on Facebook and other social media sites

keep up the super job man!

P.S. 30,000 pieces of paper - we'd love to take on that challenge man!

Thanks!! Crazy indeed :O but I guess with the advent of social media nowadays, things go viral so easily.

And yes, I'll keep you posted about the (possible) kit! :D
