every part you are crafting adds so much to this build. The windscreen is awesome.

Thank you!
The inside cutout could be a touch bigger, but after the broken first try I don't want to overdo it. And at later state there was no chance to fix it due to the clear foil inside. But I can live with it.

Cheers,
Frank

Wow Frank, continue to be amazed by your workmanship and details.  You give 1/32 a run for its money.   :D

Frank,
    Your "micro soldering" talents never cease to amaze me, amazing work! The Vickers is a real addition to the realism of this Build, just lovely work! (and the rest of the model is spectacular as well.) I'll be following your post as you finish up another really unique model.
Cheers,
Lance

Thank you very much for your encouraging comments from all you experts, that means a lot to me!
I have some reason to pull out all the stops with this built - with the gallery you will know the reason.

Cheers,
Frank

Your soldering skills are not from this world, Frank! I can't believe what I see here. The Vickers is incredible.

Others have already used all of the available suoerlatives.... what you achieve with micro-soldering is quite exceptional. The rest of the build so far is also first class in every way: the metal cowling really looks the part. I am really looking forward to seeing this in the gallery.
