An absolutely wonderful model. Everything turned out great, the colours, washing and weathering, the woodgrain and of course the complicated construction itself. Congrats !

Once again you continue to amaze. Beautiful weathering and build.
I can't imagine how to even pick it up....
Thanks,

Marvelous build!

Agree with the above positive comments and another aircraft I'm not familiar with either.
