Did some rigging, however the pics are not all that great.
The wires need painting so they are not as prominient
as they will be, but it gives an overall impression.

Cheers guys

Dave

sort of base, and add the finishing touches.

Cheers

Whew!  Well Dave, I have just finished pouring over the 23 pages
of wonder.  I suppose I can close my mouth now and wipe up the
drool.  I wanted to thank you and all the rest of you master model-
makers/artists, (you know who you are ;)) for showing me what
can be done.  I have, sorry to say not progressed much from the
OOB stage...only a handful of models since coming back to the hobby.
  I don't think I will be alive long enough to get to the level you
fellows have attained, but you sure give me something to aim for!
  Thanks again to you Dave and everyone here.  One thing you have
done is instill a love for this era of aircraft.  Wow!...now what am I going
to do with all the jets in my stash??? ;D

Best Regards,
Ernie

Cheers Ernie  :D

You can do it  8) Its all just patience, the right frame of mind,
and a bit of inspiration now and again . . .  Go for it ;) I am
sure that you can . . . . Get one going and join the happy throng.
Its great to share and to see what other folks are up to. Makes
life worth living really.

All the very best regards from NZ

Dave

Hello Dave:

Just came back from four chilly days in Duluth Minnesota and touring the harbor and Lake Superior and now catching up.  This is one neat model.  Thanks for sharing your techniques, 'color' commentary and encouraging words.  Truly outstanding work and an interesting scheme with the added details.

Best
