I have been following this as this was a scheme that I looked at when I scratch built one some time ago - and then realised that I could not make the markings. You have produced a simply superb model - easy or not - a real gem and something to be extremely proud of. Wonderful in every way.

I would be more then lucky if the kit in my stash look one day as half as good as yours! It will be my build template, thanks for the report.

Xan,

What a machine...that is a spectacular build.  Looks like it's about 1/24th scale!

That is one amazing build Xan.  The attention to detail with the rigging, especially around the struts at the turnbuckles, truly excellent work;  the fine paint work on the wings and tail sections, all put together to make one outstanding model.
