I agree with Juan - only this could be 1/24 scale. Simply incredible what you have done - I would never have thought that such detail was possible.

Thank you Giuseppe,  Antonio, Pedja, Juan and Stephen!
With your overwhelming comments and my own feeling about the effort I spend here, I think this is may be the best modeldownscaled original I have created so far.

Cheers,
Frank

This is one of the best models I have ever seen. Your skills are really masterful. You must be an old monk, living on a mountain in Tibet.

With all the attention to detail you have done, I would be hard-pressed to believe that this kit isn't 1/32, a testament to your abilities.

Most certainly agree with this statement.

Frank, a wonderful model from start to the (near) finish and great news that you managed to fix the little mishap regarding the engine. It will be a star in FFB, finished or unfinished, so there’s no need to rush or to feel pressure!
See you soon!

Making models = Mishaps

It’s a physical law  ???

Looks great though.

Frank 99% of modeling is knowing how to fix mistakes.

Your efforts are superb and it will work out.

Thank you Andreas, Guy, Stephen, Lance and Ryan fro your motivating words!

Ha, I don't think that the competition jury will like a unfinished model ;D But my plan was to put it there.
I still have the weekend, so it should be possible.

Don't be afraid, your 1/32 scale is a different class :-*
See you soon!

Not only that, a mistake or a broken part was often the starting point of something to scratch, which looks much better on the end.

The front is closed now ;)

Cheers,

Just hen I thought you could not blow my mind any further, you find another way to amaze me.  Outstanding at any scale, but your work at this scale just blows me away.
