I think I saw 10 - 20 depending on setup. Wasn't really looking... ;-)

And.... She's gone! Given to local Monument CO, game shop, Valkyrie's Loft. Handover pictures. Thank you all for reading and watching the progress and lack thereof... ;-) Now to start a new project, where to begin ?????? Scott ;-)

Revell-Fan, Agreed on the techniques with GIMP. I just put my raw pictures in the forum, have not tried to do any modifications to them... ;-) May do that in the future... Scott ;-)

Hi Zathros, Thanks for the complements and encouragement! I enjoyed putting this one together. I HATE unfinished projects.... ;-) Yes, you have my permission for critiquing and giving better ways to do things. I made plenty of mistakes on this model, and I know it! A lot of...

Thanks! I appreciate it. Any other suggested shots? Scott

Someday I will learn how to take pictures properly...... Lighting is not good, backgrounds not good, but does document the model for me. Thanks for going on the journey with me. Scott

Some more from the front. Any pose you guys would like??? Scott

Now, attaching the side pats and struts to the body. I temp taped them to hold while glue dries. Then I put in the reinforcements I made. (no pix ;-( ) Set on a tile for final dry, so the bottoms will be on same plane.... Scott ;-)

Hello, Time to get the landing gear(?) on.... First reinforce the struts by adding another layer and coloring the edges. All 3 pads complete and struts glued in. Front Pad is glued on. To prepare for the side gear, I cut out a slot in a piece that will be glued around the strut for...

Absolutely wonderful to see color being applied to such an amazing model. Really enjoy you posts! Your skills are amazing! Thank you! Happy Thanksgiving! :cool: Scott ;-)
