Here it is with a couple of  photos, taken outside, many thanks for everybody's help, and encouragement. this is my very first 1/32 kit, some of you have already left comments on the construction  page, but as its fininshed i decided to move it over to here.

Congratulations on finishing the model, congratulations for restarting the build and building it to a definately a higher level and especially congratulations for having the strenght to accept the constructive criticism and the advices given!
The model turned out great at the end and I'm absolutely sure the next one will be even better :)

Best regards,
Sasho
