Coming along nicely.
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!"..

I've seen some bad fitting kits but wow this one has to be the worse. Glad to see you sanded it into shape.
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

That's coming along nicely Mike, despite the fit issues.

Re: 1/72 F-5E Tiger II
I think this one is going back to the shelf of doom. After striping the paint, there's still way to much to fill and sand that I just don't have the motivation to work on it anymore. This was a nightmare kit to begin with.

Hmmm... I'd tie it to a Roman candle. Then yell "FIRE IN THE HOLE!!" and watch it go to kingdom come!
