Has the black plastic been hard to work with?
March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall

Most interesting. The boxart makes it look more short and wide; I was surprised at how ling this beastie was. Scribing looks fantastic, looking forward to seeing more.

Thanks Duke! Yeah there's NO WAY this thing is 1/72 scale. I need to paint the cockpit so I can start closing things up.
