It's gorgeous Guy. I'm sure I can smell varnish.

Yep, I agree, that's the best transparent effect that's not actually transparent I've ever seen. I watched how you did it in the thread but I still have no idea how you actually made it work!

Guy, the model is brilliant.  Goes to show what
real talent can do. All I am able to do is gape at
your "translucent" wings for example.  The best
I've seen yet, and will never see on my models! ;) ;D
Beautiful work, my friend.

Cheers,
Ernie :)

I'll be saving this build as 'the' exemplar of such a finish. Wonderful.

Just gorgeous......congratulations!

You have inspired me.  I want to try my hand at the W.12 prototype.

Were you able to lay your hands on any detailed photos other than those in the Datafile???

Cheers from NYC,
Michael

Hello Michael,

Thanks for your input along the way, very helpful.. ;)

No, just what was in the Datafile. I'd love someone to do the prototype properly - I think it would be a really cool project!
