That it does!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Now that I have a couple of completed builds...

I want to 'keep the ball rolling', so I am ready to prime the fuselage

I just need to get the other misc parts ready!

I am glad that 'band width' is gone.
Anyhow, I got some primer on the fuselage!

Good idea to paint the wings separately before installing, then mask them once the fuselage is assembled and painting begins there. Swing wing aircraft present a challenge in that area.

Thank you Stikpusher!

Let me say that I was getting a 'band width' error, was anyone else having this issue?

You were not the only one getting that message Ziggy. It was the site. Apparently there was a bandwidth limit on the site. It has been corrected and we now have more bandwidth. Keep on building and posting!
