Sandy, I'd hoist a glass of Islay in a trans-Atlantic toast and give you a Slàinte mhath! but its ten in the AM over here... good things are worth waiting for :)

Beautiful job, and your stick-to-it-ivness is inspiring... I've been taking notes for my own future build of this kit, and your experiences will be invaluable when I tackle it.

That's a very nice build Sandy, she's come together really well and t rhe end result looks every inch a Strutter. Nice job.

Aw, compliments - lovely to see, and well done
Handsome machines, weren't they?
I hope more schemes will become available some time from the after market

I'm finally able to see the pictures in this thread.
Very nice work on this.  Nice to see another Strutter completed.  I like the clear sections in the top wing.

Thank you all.

I wasn't happy with the overly-matt final finish (I don't know why it looks so dusty in the pics!) so I've given it a slightly more glossy-satin finish now. Once the figures are done I'll post the final version in the completed models section.

Thanks again
Sandy

Outstanding results Sandy! Just another reason I am embarrassed about the outcome of mine. You have really done a beautiful job on yours!
