1/144 Miss Suzy Q

For a few months after the Fokker D.VIII build, I really had no urge to model.
I had built a years worth of models in just one, so I had no motivation. Then
Dave Winfield sent me the Miss Suzy Q, and seven months later, I finally finished something.

You can of course see how my skills have dropped off, as there are several
mis-steps, smudges and such.

I know its not a stellar effort, but I have come to the realization that my old
hands and eyes may have now put a time limit on how much longer I can build in 1/144.

And here's the walk around..

It looks pretty good, Ray!
I really like that color scheme that MSQ uses on this model

She looks really good from here Ray. Unfortunately age creeps up on us all. It doesn't show in this model though.

That is a good looking build of the model. The smudges are just bird smears.

It looks much better than what I could do. Actually it looks really good.
